The prize-giving ceremony will be held on the last day, presided by HM King Felipe, at Ses Voltes, located at the foot of Palma cathedral.

"We are expecting the 43rd edition of the Copa del Rey MAPFRE to be the most important in the history of the regatta, with the celebration of the ORC European Championships," declared Manu Fraga, the Real Club Nautico de Palma's director.
