Dedicated to all lovers of the sea and sailing and those who do not want to miss out on a one-of-a-kind experience, the Barcolana takes place every year on the second Sunday of October in Trieste.
The international sailing regatta, celebrating its 57th anniversary this year and scheduled for Sunday 12 October 2025, combines a competitive race with a popular sailing spirit – turning Trieste into the European capital of sailing.
The tourist packages for the 2025 edition, the “Barcolana Experience”, are available on the Barcolana website.
In addition, a new major project is starting this year after the zero edition of 2023: it is “Ticket To Race”, or the possibility of registering for the regatta as a single sailor to be associated with a crew that will be made up of people who do not know each other, but united by the same passion for sailing and the desire to participate in the regatta.
