Join sailing and watersports communities around the world for Bart’s Bash, a global celebration of being on the water in memory of Olympic sailor Andrew ‘Bart’ Simpson.

On 11–12 September 2027, sailing clubs, watersports centres, families and friends will come together to celebrate Bart’s love of sailing and his belief that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the challenge, freedom and joy of being on the water.

Whether you race, sail for fun, paddle, volunteer or fundraise, there’s a place for you at Bart’s Bash. What began in 2014 as a global sailing race has grown into an international celebration of participation, community and fundraising.

Save the date, bring your community together and be part of a weekend shared around the world.

More details on how to get involved will follow.
