Back the Brits at the 2025 Emirates Sail Grand Prix Portsmouth

The Emirates Great Britain Sail Grand Prix Portsmouth is set to light up Portsmouth from 19–20 July 2025, offering sports fans an unforgettable weekend of elite racing and top-tier entertainment.

The event is the seventh stop on the 2025 Rolex SailGP circuit, and 12 national teams – including home heroes Emirates GBR featuring Olympic gold medallists Dylan Fletcher and Hannah Mills – will compete in identical F50 foiling catamarans out on the Solent. 

Capable of speeds of over 50kts, the action will unfold just metres from the shoreline, providing spectators with a front-row seat to adrenaline-packed racing.

And the weekend promises not just superstar sailors on the water, but legendary names off it as well, with chart-topping singer-songwriter Tom Grennan and legendary DJ Pete Tong performing post-racing. 

Grennan will take to the stage on Saturday and Tong on Sunday, forming a key part of SailGP’s signature Après-Sail experience alongside unforgettable waterside entertainment. 

These performances are included with all ticket types, ensuring fans can enjoy world-class music alongside the sailing spectacle.
