LOT 1
INTRODUCTION TO THE TALL
SHIPS RACES SUNDERLAND 2018
The Tall Ships Races Sunderland 2018 are an internationally acclaimed annual competition
organised by Sail Training International and held every summer in European waters. Each
year between 70 and 100 vessels from 15-20 countries, crewed by some 5-6,000 young
people from over 30 countries worldwide take part in this unique event that combines four
days of activities in each port with racing or cruising-in-company between ports. The main
aim of the event is to provide an opportunity for young people to develop their personal
skills in a challenging and memorable sail-training environment and hence at least 50% of a
Tall Ship’s crew must be aged 15-25.
For Sunderland, The Tall Ships Races Sunderland 2018 is an opportunity to strengthen its
position in the North East as a visitor destination, generate significant economic impact and
pride for the city, and a superb opportunity to bring Sunderland’s physical and cultural
regeneration to an international audience. Building on the previous successes of the
Sunderland Airshow and Sunderland Illuminations, the Council will continue to celebrate its
maritime heritage and showcase the natural assets of the coastline and river, and physical
assets such as Roker Pier, Keel Square, Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens and the
National Glass Centre. Moreover, The Tall Ships Races Sunderland 2018 will be a keystone in
the city’s ambition to become UK City of Culture in 2021.

Our mission is,
   “To deliver a safe, spectacular, 4 day event that showcases Sunderland as a welcoming,
   forward-looking, innovative city and enhances our reputation as an “Events City” on an
   international stage. The event will celebrate our maritime heritage and will invigorate our
   cultural offer, creating a legacy for all to enjoy.”

The Tall Ships Races Sunderland 2018
The Tall Ships Races 2018 will start in Sunderland, racing on to Esbjerg (Denmark), cruising
to Stavanger (Norway) and race on to the finish in Harlingen (The Netherlands).
The 4 day festival event in Sunderland will take place between Wednesday 11 and Saturday
14 July 2018. A fleet of up to 80 vessels is expected and an audience of around 1.5m visitors.

                                                                                           PAGE 7
