The Canada Sail Grand Prix will take place this weekend in Halifax - the 7th stop of the Rolex SailGP Championship. Get out your Canadian flags and come down to the Halifax and Dartmouth waterfront to cheer on the home team!

There is also plenty of action on the waterfront all week at The Boat School which is hosting FOIL4ALL in the lead up to the Canada Sail Grand Prix - including foiling demos, boat building skills exchange and high performance pathway training.

NorthStar fans are invited to meet the team on Wednesday, 17 June on the Acadia dock at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Come watch the world's fastest sailors race the slowest boats (optimists dinghies) in Slow GP from 1600-1700, followed by a meet & greet opportunity from 1700-1830 onboard the Bluenose II.

The team fan shop is also open on the Halifax Waterfront, just beside the SailGP grandstand - don't miss your chance to pick up some official NorthStar SailGP Team gear made by Quiksilver.

Racing will also be live on Saturday and Sunday from 1600-1730 AST on TSN 2 and YouTube.
