For those seeking another dose of Grand Prix excitement, the wait is already over, as tickets are now on sale for the inaugural Singapore Sail Grand Prix.
Parkland Green at East Coast Park will host the most exciting racing on water on January 14 and 15, 2023, as nine international teams, sailing F50 catamarans at highway speeds, do battle just meters from the shoreline. It will be the eighth leg of an eleven-stop global championship that visits some of the world's most iconic cities, from San Francisco to Saint-Tropez to Sydney, and now, for the first-ever event in the region, the purpose-driven league arrives in Singapore.
Guests can enjoy a fantastic weekend of racing with ticket options that appeal to every spectator experience. Options available include private VIP hospitality suites, waterfront access to the race village that includes live commentary and entertainment, plus access to the cutting-edge, wing-sailed race boats and rare opportunities to interact with SailGP athletes.
Teams from Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Great Britain, New Zealand, Spain, Switzerland and the United States will compete for points in six fleet races and one final top-three shootout in the ongoing quest to be crowned overall season winner.
The Singapore Sail Grand Prix is proudly supported by Singapore Tourism Board.
The categories available for the debut event in Singapore include:

Located at Parkland Green, East Coast Park and just meters away from the racecourse, this general spectator area allows fans to witness the high-speed, high-tech catamarans battle it out in the water up close.
