Nantucket Race Week 2026

Nantucket Race Week is a prestigious, five-day celebration of sailing culture on the island of Nantucket. It features a wide array of regattas for youth, adults, women, and classic yachts, culminating in the historic Opera House Cup. Events include competitive races, social gatherings, and maritime exhibitions across iconic venues.

As the primary fundraiser for Nantucket Community Sailing—a non-profit that teaches over 1,000 youth annually—NRW attracts high-net-worth participants and visitors with a passion for boating, philanthropy, and community. Sponsors receive premium visibility in an intimate, affluent environment known for elegance, tradition, and seafaring excellence.
