Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix
Close to shore. Close to the edge. Don’t miss out as SailGP returns to Los Angeles.
SailGP – where sport meets spectacle
The Rolex Los Angeles Sail Grand Prix on March 15-16 is the fourth event of the 2025 Season. Expect plenty of drama as the U.S. SailGP Team defends home waters for the first time this season.
Situated on the Port of Los Angeles, the racecourse is one of the tightest on the calendar – promising fierce, fearless, and formidable racing as the 12 teams fight to put maximum points on the board.
Spain took the victory here last season on their way to the 2024 Season Championship title, but Taylor Canfield and his crew are hoping the event title will belong to the U.S. team in 2025.
