Where Yachting Modernity and Tradition Meet

A spectacle to admire and aspire to every year! Les Voiles de Saint Tropez is the event of the year in every sailor’s calendar – an unmissable treat. The yachts typically moored in the harbour make way for the impressive modern and classic sailing yachts, featuring the world’s most beautiful in each category. 2023 brings the 25th edition – a supercharged format of 10 days where each of the fleets (Maxis, Moderns and Classics) meet and race in St Tropez in the best possible conditions. Returning to the roots of the regatta this year, 2023 is expected together hundreds of sailors, professionals and enthusiasts for a huge celebration of sailing!

With origins reaching to 1981, Les Voiles de Saint Tropez was initially called the Nioulargue and began as a challenge between Dick Jayson (owner of Swan 44 PRIDE) and Jean Lorrain (helmsman of 12m IR IKRA). As a race organised by Patrice Colmont, owner of Club 55, the fairly friendly contest was won by IKRA and returned the following year due to an American seeking glory.

The event evolved each year and was entrusted to the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez in 1999, being renamed officially as “Les Voiles de Saint Tropez”.

Today, the regatta represents a wonderful competitive meeting of international sailors with racing ending each day in the Voiles Village for a convivial atmosphere between competitors.

From 2020 to 2022, Les Voiles de Saint Tropez extended to a 2-week event allowing for a greater capacity of large yachts in the port as well as an extensive agenda for modern yachts – Wallys, Maxis and Super Maxis in ICRA, to classic boats – large Schooner class and Grand Traditions.

In 2023, we are celebrating the 25th edition of Les Voiles de Saint Tropez, which will again be concentrated in a single 10-day period, bringing together all categories.

Each year the BGYB team is represented with a number of yachts participating in the regatta. The 2023 edition will include yachts from our fleet of yachts available for sale and others available for charter with crew.
