We have five sets of family tickets (2 adults and up to three children) up for grabs for medal race day at the Sailing World Cup, Weymouth & Portland on Sunday 12 June.
Be there to cheer on the British Sailing Team as they take on some of the finest sailors from across the globe in the final showdown before Rio 2016.
You'll be able to take in all the action from the boat park as the sailors prepare for battle on the water. Get up close and personal with your favourite sailors, grab an autograph or two or even a selfie! Chill out in the seaside inspired spectator's area and catch all the action on the water as it happens on the live screen, or if you're feeling more adventurous why not have a go at dinghy sailing, windsurfing and stand-up paddle boarding, all of which will be available to try for FREE.
It promises to be a great day out for all the family and a great opportunity to support the very best of the British Sailing Team as they take on their Rio rivals on home waters.
