FOILING WEEK MALCESINE 2026

ABOUT THE EVENT

June 27th – July 05th, 2026

Fraglia Vela Malcesine, Lake Garda – Italy

FRAGLIA VELA MALCESINE, OLYMPIC SAILING EXCELLENCE

A club that has in its DNA the creation of regattas of excellence. Here’s where Olympic classes have always been trained and boats destined to make sailing history are tested.

LAKE GARDA, OUR FOILING ARENA

The regularity of its sparkling wind conditions, together with the quality of the hospitality services and infrastructures ashore, make Lake Garda one of the most exciting locations for sailors worldwide.

MALCESINE, HOME OF THE OUTDOORS

Worldwide lovers of the outdoors have chosen it as a reference point for the incredible variety of disciplines that can be practiced in the area.

CHALLENGING CLASSES

Foiling Week brings together the full spectrum of foiling — from high-performance sailboats to electric and pump-powered boards. Each class represents a different way to fly, united by speed, innovation and pure adrenaline on the water.

THIS SUMMER ON LAKE GARDA, FLY ABOVE THE WATER

Foiling lifts boats and boards a metre above the surface. They glide in silence, at twice the wind speed. This summer at Foiling Week in Malcesine, we bring you inside it.
Our experience programme opens to everyone visiting Lake Garda. No prior sailing knowledge required.
Six ways in, from the shoreline to the cockpit:

  • Spectator boat along the racing course, with live expert commentary
  • Tech visit behind the scenes
  • AC40 simulator, the same cockpit used by America’s Cup professionals
  • Birdyfish session, the simplest foiling sailboat, with an instructor onboard
  • E-JetCycle ride, a foiling bicycle that lifts above the water
  • 69F flight alongside a professional skipper

Watch it. Understand it. Try it. Fly it.

MORE THAN JUST A RACE

A hundred-plus Moths on the start line is one side of Foiling Week, the other is the conversation that starts dockside and carries on over dinner. While Moths zip by on the water, you might be sipping wine during a local tasting session while chatting about flap angle tweaks with an Olympic medalist. Next to you, a journalist comparing notes with a naval architect between two ocean race campaigns.

That mix is not accidental. Foiling Week draws the people who make this sport move, and it puts them in the same place at the same time.

If you come to compete, you will be pushed. If you come to learn, you will find people worth listening to. If you come for the atmosphere, you will not be short of it.
