The most popular sailing rallies
Everyone is welcome to our shoreside events, whether you're signed up for a rally or simply investigating your options. The events are a mix of informal social gatherings, presentations, boats and equipment. They're an opportunity to ask questions, to meet the World Cruising Club team, talk to experienced skippers and marine industry specialists, and to take a look at boats that have sailed the oceans.
Shoreside events take place in the UK, North America, Europe, and online, and most are free to attend. We update the calendar of events regularly, so please bookmark this page!
