Winner takes all for the male and female champions.

The WASZP Class and Foiling Base Cádiz have reached an agreement to bring the WASZP All-Stars Invitational to Cádiz for the next three years.

From 8 to 11 October 2026, some of the world's best WASZP sailors will come together for two days of high-energy, invitation-only competition, culminating in two champions taking home the biggest equal prize purse in international dinghy sailing.

€5,000 for the male winner. €5,000 for the female winner. Winner takes all.

Be an All-Star

To celebrate the return of All-Stars, we're premiering our WASZP All-Stars Invitational mini-documentary, taking you inside the racing, the athletes and the unique format that makes All-Stars different.

Are you up for the challenge?

16 sailors. Sprint racing. No drops. €10,000 on the line.
If you're at the top of your game, this is your chance to take on the world's best at the 2026 WASZP All-Stars Invitational in Cádiz.

Requests for Invitation close August 23.
Previous All-Stars winners, together with the 2026 WASZP Games and European Champions, are already invited to take their place on the start line.

For 2026, entry to All-Stars will be exclusively by invitation. WASZP is opening a Request for Invitation (RFI) to the entire WASZP community, giving the best sailors from around the world the opportunity to put themselves forward for consideration.

Just 8 male and 8 female places will be filled. Applications close August 23.
In future years, All-Stars is likely to combine qualification events with invitation places, but for 2026 the format will remain exclusively invitation-only.

Fast, Fearless, Fun. Every race counts.
Once again, All-Stars will feature fast, high-energy sprint racing.
Short courses. Quick turnarounds. Maximum intensity. No drops. Every race counts.

The All-Stars experience

You will need to arrange and pay for your flights and bring your own sail. Your hosts in Cádiz will take care of the rest.

Accommodation and most meals during the event will be provided, and most importantly:

You don't need to bring or arrange a WASZP.

Boats will be provided and standardised ahead of racing, allowing invited sailors to arrive in Cádiz and focus on the competition.
