New Zealand’s unofficial ‘home of sailing’ will once again take centre stage when Auckland hosts the ITM New Zealand Sail Grand Prix on 14–15 February 2026. The waterfront will transform into the City of SailGP as fans gather to watch high-speed foiling catamarans race just metres from shore.
Ticketed options include a Waterfront Grandstand with elevated seating in the Race Stadium, and a Premium Grandstand offering prime views with all-inclusive food and beverage. General public tickets for Auckland are now open.
Sydney will follow two weeks later, with the KPMG Sydney Sail Grand Prix set for 28 February–1 March 2026. The event has become a fixture of Australia’s summer sporting calendar, drawing large crowds to its harbourside venues. Experiences range from Premium hospitality on Shark Island, to official spectator boats offering on-water viewing, and Dockside access at the Tech Site with behind-the-scenes entertainment.
Tickets for both events went on sale today, marking the start of the countdown to two major weekends of SailGP racing in the Southern Hemisphere.
