Tickets to SailGP’s South American debut are now on sale, with the Enel Rio Sail Grand Prix unfolding on 3-4 May.
The iconic location of Guanabara Bay will host the league’s 12 flying F50s as they battle it out in front of the iconic Rio skyline and stunning Sugarloaf Mountain - with Martine Grael’s Mubadala Brazil leading the charge.
The Enel Rio Sail Grand Prix will mark the 6th stop on the 2025 Season calendar, the league’s most expansive season to date and will follow events in Dubai, Auckland, Sydney, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
The fan-focused, two-day spectacle of exhilarating races, intense rivalries and action-packed entertainment promises to be an unforgettable experience for spectators and the 12 national teams, all of which will be gunning for the win.
Speaking about the event, driver of the Mubadala Brazil SailGP Team Martine Grael said: “For me, this event will have a very special meaning as I get to represent my country at home once again, this time in Guanabara Bay. I know I might be biased when I say it’s one of the most beautiful places on the planet, but I can’t say anything differently. At this moment, I’m able to put rivalry aside and invite all the sailors who will race alongside us to be enchanted as well”.
Alan Adler, CEO of IMM — the company responsible for bringing the international league to Brazil - and CEO of the Mubadala Brazil SailGP Team, says he is fulfilling a dream.
“We are very happy to have Rio de Janeiro as the stage for one of the SailGP events. It has always been our dream to have a Brazilian team participating in an event in Brazil, where we have passionate fans for high-level sports.”
SailGP CEO Russell Coutts said the event will ‘redefine the sport of sailing in South America’.
“We are excited to bring one of the world's fastest growing sports and entertainment properties to the Brazilian people and Rio de Janeiro, a new iconic location for our global championship.”
