Cowes Week 2026 - 1st to 7th August - SPECIAL EDITION CELEBRATING BICENTENARY
After years away, Cowes Week's most iconic spectacle will return in 2026, as the Red Arrows and fireworks look set to light up the skies for the Regatta's 200th Anniversary. The world famous Red Arrows, combined with the closing night fireworks over the Solent, will headline a week celebrating the bicentenary of the world's longest running Sailing Regatta. Their return is a major highlight of what organisers suggest could be the most ambitious Cowes Week in living memory and a fitting tribute to two centuries of tradition and competition.
BICENTENARY CELEBRATIONS
On the water the Solent will come alive with a Parade of Sail, Special Anniversary Race and the newly announced Bicentenary Gold Cup. Onshore the bicentenary is expected to raise the bar like never before - includes:
* Debut of the 1826 Stage at Northwood House, a concert venue hosting a full week of headline acts, live music and entertainment.
* Re-imagined Parade Village.
* Bicentenary Exhibition - bringing 200 year story to life.
Cowes Yachts Haven Competitors' Hub will also undergo a major transformation.
