SailGP Halifax Harbour

SailGP returned to Halifax Harbour for an adrenaline-charged weekend of high-speed racing, bringing 13 international F50 foiling catamarans to Nova Scotia's waters. These cutting-edge vessels reach speeds exceeding 100 km/h, skimming above the waves on hydrofoils in one of the most spectacular sporting events on water.

The 2026 Halifax event featured an expanded Race Stadium with exclusive access to Georges Island, offering spectators an unparalleled vantage point right in the middle of the action. Over 10,000 visitors flocked to the Halifax waterfront for this world-class event, making it one of the biggest sporting weekends of the summer.

Beyond the racing, the SailGP village on the Halifax waterfront featured live music, food vendors, interactive exhibits, and family-friendly activities.
