In the lead-up to the upcoming 37th edition of the America’s Cup, set to take place in Barcelona in August and October of 2024, Port Fòrum, located in Sant Adrià de Besòs, is the prime berthing spot for spectators and participants to enjoy the competition from Barcelona’s coastline.
Port Fòrum has been designated as a ‘Preferred Marina’ by the America’s Cup organizers. This recognition underscores the premium facilities and services the port will provide to visiting vessels through the America’s Cup Superyacht Programme. During the competition, Port Fòrum will not only be in the center of nautical action but also showcase innovations in sustainability and environmental responsibility, part of its ESG innovations and reflected in its new ‘Green Dock’.
The ‘Green Dock’ will serve as the official base for the yachts competing in the prestigious Additional Regatta Maxi Yacht Cup, scheduled from September 24 to 29, 2024. This highly anticipated nautical event, featuring some of the world’s largest and fastest yachts, will be organized by the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona (RCNB) and BWA Yachting.
The Maxi Yacht Cup will be held for the first time as part of the America’s Cup, adding an exciting new dimension to this historic competition. Maxi Yachts, known for their impressive size (over 60 feet/18 meters in length), speed, and aerodynamic design, represent the peak of sailing technology and performance. Their inclusion in the AC37 promises an unparalleled spectacle, combining elegance, speed, and technical prowess.
The inauguration of the ‘Green Dock’ at Port Fòrum during the 2024 America’s Cup represents a significant milestone for the marina and the international nautical community. With the presence of the Maxi Yachts and infrastructural innovations, this event promises to be a celebration of sailing, technology, and sustainability, solidifying Barcelona as a premier destination for yachting enthusiasts.
