An Epic Battle Between Man and Wind 

Occurring once every four years, the 37th edition is being held in Barcelona’s Port Vell and along the beach to Port Olímpic. This promises to be one of the most intense America’s Cups in the event’s 174-year history, and you’ll have a private front-row seat as you witness the world's most elite sailors and cutting-edge yachts converge for the ultimate test of skill, speed, and strategy. 

 The America’s Cup is the world’s oldest international sporting trophy dating back to 1851. Having only been won by teams from the United States, Switzerland, and New Zealand, it’s a dramatically suspenseful event that marks the pinnacle of international yacht racing.

Experience Highlights

  • Get up close to the action as you watch the boats race through the waves and have a front row seat to the action
  • While in Barcelona enjoy incredible architecture, culture and Michelin-starred gastronomy
  • Take a break from the spectacle and experience world-class service as you dine onboard with a view of the race course
  • Combine your America’s Cup charter with a sail along the coast to the Balearics

About Imagine

Born in New Zealand, IMAGINE has a rich history with the America’s Cup, having been used as a hospitality boat and spectator platform supporting team New Zealand during previous cups (the winners of the last cup in 2021). She also has her own racing history and has completed three circumnavigations, including a passage to the Arctic Circle. Available to charter from the 12th of October until the end of October, she’s the perfect choice from which to watch the sailing dramatics unfold. 

Feel the excitement as you watch this epic battle between man, wind and sea unfold from onboard IMAGINE. This unique experience will get you up close to the action as you watch the boats race through the waves and listen to the sound of the water crashing against the hull and the thud of the sails as they swell with the breeze. 

An experience that goes beyond the sporting spectacle, this is a total immersion in the adrenaline and excitement of a world-class sailing competition. As soon as you step onboard, the sound of the wind whistling through the sails, the salty smell of the sea, and the electric atmosphere welcome you. From your luxury viewing platform, enjoy this unforgettable experience in the company of family and friends. 

Colour and Cuisine in Barcelona

While you’re in Barcelona, there’s so much to enjoy, from incredible architecture and culture to Michelin-starred gastronomy. From a guided tour of La Boqueria market followed by a private cooking class to learn and enjoy Spanish cuisine. Pair your new cooking skills with a master class in wine tasting by visiting local vineyards.

Voyage from Barcelona to the Balerics

After an action-packed time in Barcelona, combine your America’s Cup charter with a sail along the coast to the Balearics. Anchor on the west coast of Mallorca for incredible foodie spots before sailing south and soaking up culture in Palma.

Unwind in Ibiza with wellness in spades or head to Formentera for pristine beaches and incredible seafood. As it won't be high season you may find you may have the island to yourself. For a more adventurous experience, try cliff jumping, underwater archaeology tours, or customized adventure sports packages. Immerse yourself in the local culture through historical treasure hunts, cultural immersion experiences, and exclusive access to private estates and gardens.

Capture the islands' beauty with customized art and photography workshops, or explore hidden caves and dramatic cliffs. Whether seeking relaxation, adventure, or cultural enrichment, the Balearics provide an unforgettable luxury escape.
