Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta

The Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta is one of the most widely enjoyed Classic Yacht events worldwide, and returns in April 2023 for the 34th edition based out of historic Nelsons Dockyard. 

Unlike many regattas and sailing events of its size, Antigua's Classic Yacht Regatta allows owners, guests and crew alike, to mix freely on the dock in an easy flowing social environment.

The magical combination of serious racing, laid-back Antiguan hospitality, plenty of rum, sunshine, and great camaraderie in a friendly relaxed atmosphere, places the Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta in a class of its own.

Most events for the 34th edition, including registration & dockage, will be in Nelson’s Dockyard.
These will include the Single-Handed Race and the Concours d’ Elégance, followed by three days of glorious racing, culminating in the famous Parade of the Classics in English Harbour after the last race on the Sunday,  with Prize Giving following 6-8pm.

Monday will be for rest, relaxation - and fun, with the restoration of Gig Racing at the Admiral’s Inn on the Tuesday, with traditional Cream Teas served by elegant ladies & gentlemen.
