The U.S. SailGP Team has named the Bermuda Tourism Authority its Official Tourism Partner for the 2026 season—bringing together elite high-performance sport and one of the world’s most iconic sailing destinations.

With a legacy deeply rooted in the sport, Bermuda has long stood at the center of international sailing. As host of world-class events, the island is home to the Great Sound, an unmatched natural amphitheatre on the water, widely regarded as one of the finest racing venues in the world, where sport, spectacle, and setting come together in a truly unique way.

This partnership will be activated across key moments in the U.S. SailGP Team calendar, including the Apex Group Bermuda Sail Grand Prix (May 9–10) and the Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix (May 30–31). Through integrated marketing campaigns, global digital storytelling, on-water branding, and fan engagement initiatives, Bermuda will be showcased to an international audience of passionate sailing and sport enthusiasts.

As Mike Buckley, CEO of the U.S. SailGP Team, noted, the collaboration reflects a shared passion for performance, innovation, and the ocean, while providing a powerful platform to bring Bermuda’s story to life around the world.

More than visibility, this partnership represents a strategic opportunity to convert global attention into meaningful connection, positioning Bermuda not only as a host venue, but as a must-visit destination where adventure, luxury, and natural beauty meet.
