Tickets are now on sale for the Apex Group Bermuda Sail Grand Prix - the tenth event in SailGP's global calendar - taking place on May 4-5, 2024. For the first time, the world's most exciting racing on water will be hosted at Morgan's Point, with the Saturday entertainment program featuring a live concert by soca sensation, KES THE BAND, following the opening day of racing.

SailGP will bring its fast-paced racing - featuring ten national teams racing identical, cutting-edge hydrofoiling F50s - to Bermuda's Morgan's Point as a brand new location for the Race Stadium. The start, finish, dramatic first leg and one of the primary turning mark gates of the course will be positioned up-close to the on shore spectator facilities, giving fans an unprecedented viewing experience that's never been seen before in Bermuda.

Fans will have a variety of ticket options to choose from with racing taking place over the course of two days, with both land-based, and on-water options available. Giant screens, race commentary, entertainment, and food and beverage are all part of what promises to create an exhilarating weekend with a great family-friendly, onshore party vibe.

Action on the water shifts to land after racing on the Saturday, where the party atmosphere will continue with a special performance by international soca artist sensation, KES THE BAND, who will bring fans the sweet sounds from their latest album. The performance will also benefit the local community as part of the proceeds will be donated by SailGP to local charity, HOME - helping to combat homelessness on the island. Saturday ticket prices automatically include the concert.

SailGP Managing Director Andrew Thompson said: "We are excited to be returning to Bermuda and look forward to delivering an enhanced stadium experience for the fans this year. We've taken the decision to move the Race Stadium to Morgan's Point which means we can bring fans much closer to the action as well as create a completely different vibe to what Bermudian fans have experienced in the past. With the addition of a unique performance post racing on the Saturday we hope the party island will really live up to its name."
