The elite sailing race boasts the fastest yachts, the latest filming technology, an e-series and "an element of glamour," too.
WWD Editor, International
After making a substantial splash at the Olympics — its brand ambassador Léon Marchand scored four gold medals in the pool — Louis Vuitton is moving on to bigger waters as the title sponsor of sailing’s most prestigious race, the America’s Cup, which gets underway in earnest this week in Barcelona.
“Our proximity to sports is not new,” said Pietro Beccari, chairman and chief executive officer of Louis Vuitton , whose connection to the America’s Cup dates back to 1983. “But I think we are in a very strong position to reinforce this position.”

“I tell my sales associates in the stores that they don’t just sell products. They sell what we stand for —overcoming your limits, going above and beyond, and I think sports embody that, too,” said the executive, who once played soccer professionally. “We stand for optimism. We stand for victory. We stand for challenging yourself and challenging your limits all the time. This is the spirit.”
All of the above bodes well for the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup, which kicks off with the Louis Vuitton Cup round robins on Thursday and winds up toward the end of October.
Professional sailor Grant Dalton, CEO of the America’s Cup event, told WWD qualifying races in Barcelona have already racked up 714 million views online, meaning the event will surely surpass the 914 million views achieved overall at 2021’s races in Auckland, New Zealand.
In an interview, he credited such huge audiences to the free-to-air policy of America’s Cup, rare at most sporting events, where broadcast rights rank as a chief revenue stream. “TV is a 20 million euro cost for us to help build the sport,” Dalton said.
Beccari let slip that a documentary is being filmed about this edition of the America’s Cup, which could do for sailing what the Netflix series “Formula 1: Drive to Survive” did for car racing — fan its global popularity, and attract younger generations and more women to the sport.
In another effort to entice new fans, organizers devised an e-series livestreamed on Twitch, with the inaugural edition offering six exceptional players the chance to come to Barcelona on Sept. 28 and “race” in its cutting-edge simulators. “Gamers to sailors” is how Dalton described the project, noting youngsters from Venezuela, Hungary and New Zealand have already won a chance to make the leap from “bedroom to the water.”
The Youth & Puig Women’s America’s Cup, held concurrently, should also heighten the sport’s profile.
Also, “we needed to be in a time zone and a population base [that] is infinitely bigger than New Zealand,” he said. “We needed to move it into a bigger market from a sponsorship point of view.”
The 2024 edition is already a main attraction in Barcelona, where anyone within view of the water can take in the racing, since it’s held close to shore around Port Vell and along the beach to Port Olímpic.
Dalton, who has raced around the world seven times, also trumpeted that the boats themselves are a star attraction as “the most sophisticated, technologically advanced and certainly the fastest boats that have ever competed in the America’s Cup.”
Having Vuitton as title sponsor, and organizer of the qualifying stages, is another bonus: “They bring prestige, they bring an element of glamour, they have an amazing marketing ability, and they just bring panache,” Dalton enumerated. “It’s like mum and apple pie: The America’s Cup without Louis Vuitton is not the America’s Cup.”
Five challengers in the Louis Vuitton Cup regattas — Ineos Britannia, Alinghi Red Bull Racing, Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli, NYYC American Magic and Orient Express Racing — will battle it out on the water to face off with Emirates Team New Zealand for the big prize.
Dalton described yacht sailing as a “technology sport,” analogous to Formula 1, since only a dozen members of each 150-strong team are sailors. “So if you can’t be a significant player in the technology race, you will get beaten,” he said.
In an interview, Beccari noted that “the technology of filming” the sleek sailing yachts is also making a quantum leap with the 37th edition, thanks to helicopters, drones and on-screen graphics, which should make it easier for newcomers to understand how the dueling teams are faring, and when mistakes are looming.
Vuitton has played a role in America’s Cup races in the U.S., Australia, Bermuda, Hong Kong, Dubai, France and Spain, burnishing the regattas’ visibility and prestige. Vuitton was last the title partner of the America’s Cup in 2017 in Bermuda.
Vuitton has also recently run ad campaigns featuring iconic duos, such as soccer stars Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, or tennis legends Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer .
Asked about what Vuitton might gain from being title sponsor of the America’s Cup, Beccari replied: “It’s very difficult to understand what a specific event brings you. I believe in a series of events, a series of things that makes your brand desirable,” he said. “We strongly believe, with our guts, that the Olympics, the America’s Cup, what we did at the Grand Prix de Monaco, what we do with tennis, is strengthening the desirability of our brand, also with young generations.”
Beccari concurred with Dalton that yacht sailing remains an “emerging” sport.
“But I think it is very sophisticated and when we talk about travel, I would say that the sea is the way that people started traveling across continents,” he said. “So I think there is a certain link to the world of travel of Louis Vuitton.…It seems very natural that we accompany the America’s Cup back to Europe.”
He also highlighted the “romantic” aspect of yacht sailing, since the victor decides the timing, rules, format and sponsors for the next America’s Cup, giving each edition a unique character.
Vuitton hosted a massive kickoff party Tuesday night at a mountaintop amusement park, which attracted the likes of Marchand and his fellow Olympian Pau Echaniz, a Spanish slalom canoeist who took home a bronze medal.
Vuitton plans to host hundreds of VICs in Barcelona over the coming months, as well as journalists and various local dignitaries.
In addition, it crafted the Louis Vuitton Cup trophy and — at the historical Louis Vuitton atelier in Asnières — two trunks for the Louis Vuitton Cup and the America’s Cup.
The Auld Mug is the silver trophy handed to the winner of the America’s Cup since 1851, considered the oldest international sports trophy in the world. Meanwhile, the Louis Vuitton Cup has been presented to the winner of the eponymous qualifying-stage competition since 1983.
Nicolas Ghesquière and Pharrell Williams, Vuitton’s artistic directors for women’s and men’s collections respectively, contributed to the line, which boasts a graphic “V” originally designed by Gaston-Louis Vuitton, grandson of the founder.
The capsule includes the LV Rush sneaker, which Ghesquière unveiled as part of his cruise 2024 collection for Vuitton, and it reprises a striped theme seen in Williams’ debut spring 2024 collection.
Beccari said he hopes to entice both men to spend a weekend in Barcelona and be seduced by the spectacle. “I love spending vacation on boats and on the sea,” he said.

On Tuesday, Louis Vuitton hosted a party for the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup, the world’s most historic and prestigious sailing competition, at the amusement park on Tibidabo, a hill offering a sprawling view of Barcelona. Between riding on the ferris wheel and other attractions, the thousand guests nibbled on tuna tartare tacos and popcorn. Meanwhile, members of the Orient Express Racing Team — the French yacht racing team that competes for the cup — took photos with France’s darling aka gold medalist swimmer and Louis Vuitton ambassador Léon Marchand. The evening included a show by Spanish theatre company La Fura dels Baus before guests convened on the dance floor.
“People have been talking about [last night’s party] for months around here. That’s kind of what Louis Vuitton brings. They still talk about the Louis Vuitton ball in Auckland in 2003 [celebrating the sixth Louis Vuitton Cup held in New Zealand that year],” Grant Dalton, CEO of America’s Cup events, says the next day during a press conference at Barcelona’s Hotel Arts. “Louis Vuitton is a luxury brand, but it doesn’t pigeonhole us. It just makes us more popular. It makes the sport more popular.”
The Louis Vuitton Cup, a series for challengers of the America’s Cup, runs from 29 August to 7 October. Then, the winning team will face the defender Emirates Team New Zealand in the Louis Vuitton America’s Cup starting on 12 October.
It’s an enduring relationship: the America’s Cup was born in 1851 on the Isle of Wight in the south of the UK, three years before Louis Vuitton was founded. Louis Vuitton began sponsoring the challengers’ series in 1983, before LVMH was created in 1987. This time, Louis Vuitton is also the title partner of the event.
Puig, Omega, Prada, Tudor, Panerai and L’Oréal are among other luxury companies partnering with the event, in different capacities. Puig, the Barcelona-based beauty and fashion conglomerate, is both the global partner of the event and the official naming partner of the inaugural Puig Women’s America’s Cup, which runs from 5 to 13 October. Omega is the timekeeper and a partner of Emirates Team New Zealand. Prada is the co-title sponsor of Italy’s Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli team. Patrizio Bertelli, Prada Group executive director and chairman of the board of directors, created the Luna Rossa team in 1997; Luna Rossa first participated in the America’s Cup in 2000. Watch brand Panerai is also a partner of Italy’s Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli, while fellow watchmaker Tudor is a partner of Switzerland’s Alinghi Red Bull Racing team. L’Oréal is a partner of the French women’s Orient Express Racing Team. Other high-profile sailing events include the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race and Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez, sponsored by BMW.
Why does a relatively niche sport draw so much interest from so many brands? Jordan Wise, founder of Gaffer, a media platform focused on athletes and brands, sees several reasons: “One, the America’s Cup is synonymous with high society, wealth and exclusivity. The audience is typically affluent, making it an ideal platform for luxury brands to align themselves with an event that shares their values of prestige and exclusivity. By partnering with the America’s Cup, luxury brands can reinforce their association with an elite lifestyle, which appeals to their target demographic. The event’s history and tradition add to the narrative of timeless quality that many luxury brands promote.”
Several luxury goods executives have a personal interest in sailing. Bertelli was on board (a few times) during the 2000 America’s Cup, but preferred following the regattas from the team’s support boats. During a press conference in June, Puig president Marc Puig recalled Optimist sailing at age seven (the small boats are popular with younger sailors) in the port of Barcelona during the winter months; his father, Mariano Puig, was a sailor who was keen to share his passion with his children. “We have supported sailing regattas for more than 40 years,” the CEO said in a statement.
Wise also stresses the synergy across innovation and sustainability. “The America’s Cup is known for pushing the boundaries of sailing technology. Luxury brands, especially those in the sectors of high-end watches, cars and yachts, often emphasise innovation and craftsmanship. A partnership allows brands to highlight their commitment to cutting-edge technology and excellence. With an increasing focus on sustainability in luxury markets, the technological advancements in eco-friendly yacht design during the America’s Cup also offer brands a platform to showcase their own sustainability initiatives.”
He highlights the benefits for brands like inviting their top clients to the cup’s hospitality venues — VIP lounges and yacht experiences — and developing limited-edition products to launch around the event. Louis Vuitton launched in July the 37th America’s Cup capsule collection for men and women, which includes nautical-themed ready-to-wear, bags and accessories. It also features dressier pieces such as a long column dress and a double-breasted jacket. (The Noé bucket bag from the collection, priced at €2,200, is exclusive to the LV pop-up store at Barcelona’s Marina Port Vell and is already sold out.) Panerai collaborated with Prada on a series of watches titled the Panerai Luna Rossa, which are inspired by the technologies and materials used in the America’s Cup — the Panerai Submersible Luna Rossa Carbotech is priced at €18,400.
Sailing will always be a niche sport, Dalton suggests. “One, there’s a perception that it’s a sport of the rich,” he says. “Second, landlocked countries don’t sail,” he adds, citing Switzerland as an exception (the country is competing at the America’s Cup). “So it will never be a mainstream sport — but what we’re trying to do is popularise it on TV.”
The Barcelona edition is set to hit record audiences thanks to the favourable time zone. The 36th edition in Auckland, New Zealand, had a combined TV audience of 941 million viewers, says Dalton, citing Nielsen data. This time, before the preliminary regatta in Barcelona kicked off, there were already 714 million viewers. “We thought that by coming to Europe we should target 1.5 billion. But having reached 714 million before it even started, would indicate that we’re going to blow that number off,” Dalton says. “We have a philosophy to grow the sport, which is free to air. Firstly, it gets more eyeballs; then, we don’t get geoblocked, because we’re not behind a paywall. There is one exception to that, which is the US, with cable television network ESPN . If you want to grow a sport and particularly a niche sport, you can’t charge.” In addition, the America’s Cup has entered the e-sport arena with the game accumulating 180,000 downloads so far.
Is sailing set to follow the path of Formula One? The motor racing sport gained particular popularity from the Netflix show Drive to Survive, which drew the fashion industry’s attention to the influence of its star drivers . “We have our own version of Drive to Survive,” Dalton says. “[The crew] is not here right now, but they’re everywhere else! They’re embedded on all the teams and it’s brought to you by Louis Vuitton. It’s being done by the director [of documentary films] Free Solo , The Last Dance and Return to Space . That’s being done quietly and they’ve got some good stuff because you forget they’re there. It lifts the lid on the intrigue,” Dalton adds. “America’s Cup teams are pretty secretive about what they do because it’s a technology. We were able to, through the protocol that we write, make it compulsory for teams to participate.”
Filming is in process and the release date of the documentary isn’t set yet.
In the meantime, visitors who are coming to Barcelona for the cup can get their thrills at the America’s Cup Experience museum, via a 15-minute Imax movie and a race simulator.

Travel Safe
If you feel like sailing through calm waters, the Arousa, Pontevedra and Vigo estuaries may be what you are looking for. Its waters are protected by the Cíes Islands, part of the Islas Atlánticas de Galicia National Park and a must for people who love being surrounded by marine nature. Its island of Monteagudo houses the largest beach in the Cíes: Rodas beach , a truly beautiful landscape. But if you want to anchor on any of its three islands, you must first request an anchoring permit.
The Costa Brava invites you to enjoy the warmth of the Mediterranean Sea along more than 200 kilometers of coastline full of impressive coves: some are hiding their own natural caves (for example, Cala Pola ) while others can only be reached from the sea ( Pedrosa , La Foradada and Ferriol), which allow visitors to view Montgrí Natural Park, the Medes Islands and the Baix Ter from another perspective. You can also anchor in Culip Cove, a lonely place where it is said that old sunken ships lie.
Take in towns like Sitges , Cubelles, Vilanova i la Geltrú and Sant Pere de Ribes during your boat trip along this coast. You will also come across the Garraf massif, which descends into the sea.
The Alicante coast offers excellent conditions for sailing; what's more, most of its beaches come with the blue flag guarantee (the blue flag certificate is issued by the European Foundation for Environmental Education that guarantees the quality of the beaches and ports awarded this recognition). In its waters you can discover a large number of coves (in many of them you can anchor), natural corners such as the Serra Gelada Natural Park or such pleasant surprises as the natural pool on the island of Portixol.
If you are travelling with children, the Costa Cálida boasts areas of calm waters and family beaches such as those in La Manga and Cala Cortina . What's more, you can enjoy fishing villages from your boat or head ashore to sample some of the region's typical dishes.
The Costa Tropical spans the coast of Granada, including towns such as Motril , Salobreña , Almuñécar and La Herradura . One of the most famous navigation routes on this coast begins in the bay of La Herradura until reaching the cliffs of Maro-Cerro Gordo, in Malaga. On the way you will pass through virgin coves such as Cala de la Rijana (near Motril), a beach with dark sand and turquoise waters that has its own watchtower.
Playa de Cantarriján represents the natural border between the Malaga and Granada coasts. Your trip doesn't have to end here, as the wonders of the Costa del Sol still await you! Playa de Maro is a Spanish favourite. And do you know its neighbor Caleta de Maro?
Ibiza and Formentera are the well-known Pitiusas Islands, one of the most charming spots in Spain for any sailor, especially if you set sail between April and October. These islands' heavenly beaches boasting crystal-clear waters and golden sand include Platja s'Alga (on Espalmador, an islet to the north of Formentera), Ses Illetes (Formentera) and Cala Salada (Ibiza).
If you are passionate about sailing, Tenerife is your ideal destination! One of the reasons that make sailing in the Canary Islands so popular are the prevailing trade winds and the wind channels between islands. In addition, it is possible to spot cetaceans such as pilot whales and dolphins in the Los Gigantes area, although it is extremely important not to approach the animals since there are national and international laws that protect them.

Why go sailing in spain.
Charter a yacht in Spain and find out why is this one of the most desirable sailing destinations in the world. It is extremely difficult to beat the diversity of Spain, a relatively small country which is surrounded by one ocean, two different seas and a vast number of diverse cultures, climates, and landscapes. If you’re looking for hot summers, mild winters and rough ocean sailing conditions - Spain is the place to go. However, if you’d like to spend a mild and chilly summer on an atoll, Spain is the best destination for it as well. Even if you want a tropical feel on your sailing holiday, a yacht charter in Spain can offer it too.
Yacht charter in the Mediterranean Coast of Spain offers the opportunity for sailors to discover the Spanish culture at its best, through regions such as Valencia , Catalonia, and the Balearic Islands – Mallorca , Menorca , Ibiza & Formentera. Hop aboard your luxury yacht charter and spend some time in the picturesque and bohemian-like cities and towns of the area: Sitges, Cadaqués, Barcelona, Valencia, Alicante, Peñíscola etc.
Charter a yacht in the unspoilt northern coast of Spain , well known for the best food offer in southern Europe. Its intact green coastal landscapes of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, and the Basque Country can only be matched with the landscapes of much colder places like Ireland and Scotland.
The Canary Islands , archipelago of volcanic origins in the Atlantic are the place to go if you want to run away on your rental yacht from the cold European winter without leaving Europe.
You can charter a yacht in Spain throughout the entire year . Both spring and autumn are great for sailing the Mediterranean - the weather is great, but you also have the advantage of escaping the big crowds that come to the area as soon as the summer starts. However, summer is the most popular time for chartering a yacht on the Balearic Islands. As well, a right time for yachting in the northern coast of Spain. Be careful, though, the Atlantic Ocean can get a bit rough at any time of the year and you might need to look for a haven in July or August as well.
If you want to rent a yacht in Spain during the winter, between November and February, the Canary Islands are the perfect choice. The climate is mainly sunny and warm , with temperatures very rarely going below 18°C all year round. Besides that, the sea temperature is constantly close to 22°C. There are three main types of climates on the Spanish Coast. Mediterranean Coast climate is characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, dry winters. The average temperature in the winter ranges between 5°C and 15°C, while going up to 26°C and 35°C during the yacht charter season. The sea temperature amounts to around 14°C in February and 25°C in August. Northern Spain climate is colder and much rainier, although the summer tends to be mild and sunny. The average temperature in the winter ranges between 5°C and 10°C, and between 15°C and 23°C during the summer, so keep that in mind if you want to charter a boat in Costa Verde. The sea temperature is around 10°C in February and 22°C in August.
Winds and tides.
The Spanish weather is fairly stable, but it can also be prone to winds , creating the perfect sailing conditions for those who want to embark on an adventure by boat. Borrasca is a thunderstorm or violent squall, especially in the Mediterranean and the Northern Part of Spain. It usually comes from NW, W. Chubasco is a rapid and strong downpour, it starts up very quickly but stops in a matter of minutes. It is quite common throughout the country. It doesn’t come from a specific direction.
Levante is a hot wind from E, NE, that can be especially strong in the Strait of Gibraltar, where the local conditions increase its power and speed. Another SW wind you will feel on your charter yacht in Spain is lebeche . This one coming from the Sahara, bringing elevated temperatures and sand from the desert. In the Canary Islands area, it is also known as calima . Galerna is stormy, hot, and very humid NW wind that arises unexpectedly on the north coast, especially during the summer season. Wind gusts can go up to more than 100 kilometres per hour. Tramontana originated in the French Central Massif and the Pyrenees, it is a N wind that blows strongly over the Balearic Islands and some parts of Catalonia. Sometimes it can reach speeds close to two hundred kilometres per hour.
Normally, the heights of waves in the Mediterranean range between 0.5 and 1.5 m , and very rarely exceed 5 m. However, the Atlantic and Cantabria coasts are a whole different thing. There, waves can easily go beyond 10 meters during the winter. Actually, the biggest wave recorded in Spain was appeared near to Galicia and was 27,81 meters high.
On the Mediterranean Coast, there are practically no tides . The Cantabrian Coast of Spain has a tidal range of 1 meter . On the Atlantic Coast (Galicia, Canary Islands) tidal range can go up to 2,8 m .
You will hardly notice any sea currents on your charter yacht in the Mediterranean, but this changes on the Atlantic side of the Spanish coast. The Galician coast is under the influence of cold currents all year long, but the more east you sail, the warmer water you will get.

Make the most of your sailing vacation and discover deserted coves in the northeast, visit the Caves of Drach, near Porto Cristo. The four caves with the underground lake and a classical concert performed on a boat are something you should not miss.
Charter a yacht in the party capital of the world – Ibiza , a place you must visit at least once in your lifetime. Party hard in Europe’s best nightclubs in San Antonio or Playa d’en Bossa, with performances of the world’s best DJs. Big parts of the island are registered as UNESCO World Heritage Sites and you should visit at least some of them, such as the old part of Ibiza Town or the remains of the first Phoenician settlement at Sa Caleta.
Valencia is the birthplace of one of the three main types of Spanish Paella – Valencian Paella, and it would be a shame not to try it at least once. If you charter a yacht in Valencia in March, be sure to check out the internationally famous Fallas Festival, Valencia’s unofficial welcome to the spring. In a program full of impressive sound and light shows, there are many concerts taking place in the Viveros Gardens in the evening.
