The 71st edition of the Giraglia, one of the most prestigious and ancient regattas in the Mediterranean organized by the Yacht Club Italiano in collaboration with the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez, will take place from June 7 to June 15, 2024.

For the first time, Loro Piana will be the title partner, solidifying the Maison's commitment to the world's most prestigious sports events, sharing values such as tradition, fair play, and love for nature.

"I am delighted to start my term by welcoming on board such an important and recognized brand worldwide as Loro Piana," says Carlo Cameli, President of the Yacht Club Italiano. "Its history is closely linked to sports, particularly sailing. Associating its name with the Giraglia regatta is a great honor for us, and we are confident that it will perpetuate the prestige of this event; a definite added value for all enthusiasts and sailors who will gather in Saint-Tropez next June for a memorable week."

The Loro Piana Giraglia 2024 will include four days of inshore races in Saint-Tropez, from Saturday, June 8, to Tuesday, June 11, and the start of the 241 nm offshore race (Saint-Tropez - Giraglia - Genoa) on Wednesday, June 12.

Online registrations and the publication of the notice of race will be available shortly on the loropianagiraglia.com website.
