Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s Cabinet is weighing the possibility of assuming direct control of the country\u2019s flagship Sailing Week<\/a><\/strong> event, following a notably low turnout in 2025 that officials attribute to poor promotion and declining engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking at the post-Cabinet media briefing on Thursday, Chief of Staff Lionel Hurst confirmed that only around 42 boats participated in this year\u2019s regatta\u2014a significant drop from previous years.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The event, which once drew hundreds of international vessels and thousands of visitors, is considered a major pillar of Antigua\u2019s tourism calendar and a contributor to national GDP.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere was a general feeling that the promotion of the event was inadequate,\u201d Hurst stated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen the government allocates significant funding\u2014as it did this year, contributing over US\\$140,000\u2014it expects a corresponding level of effort and accountability.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hurst noted that the Cabinet believes new leadership and a fresh strategy may be needed to restore the event\u2019s former prestige. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The National Parks Authority has been identified as a possible entity to lead the event’s restructuring and future coordination.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Antigua Sailing Week<\/a><\/strong>, which marked its 55th year in 2024, has long been one of the most renowned regattas in the Caribbean.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

However, officials now acknowledge that regional competition has intensified, with other islands launching similar events that have drawn away participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOther territories have studied our model and are now replicating it. We\u2019re almost a victim of our own success,\u201d Hurst said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the lack of international promotion, Cabinet was also concerned about limited local engagement. Hurst said that more should be done to involve Antiguans and Barbudans\u2014not only in the revelry and entertainment aspects of Sailing Week, but also in the economic opportunities around vending and logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A full postmortem review of the 2025 event is currently underway, and officials say decisions regarding the 2026 regatta will be made after this process concludes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, early indications suggest a shift toward increased government oversight, with emphasis on long-term sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plans are also under discussion to introduce a new regatta in March, potentially filling a gap left by the discontinued BVI Spring Regatta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hurst noted that many vessels remain in the region during that time, and the government is exploring ways to take advantage of their presence\u2014though hotel availability during Antigua\u2019s peak season remains a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asked whether funding for other marine events, such as the Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta, will continue, Hurst confirmed that the Ministry of Tourism intends to support them as part of a broader maritime tourism strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Classics regatta has become almost as popular as Sailing Week, and it too will receive funding to grow and thrive,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this year\u2019s setbacks, Cabinet remains optimistic that, with revised leadership and more aggressive international promotion, Sailing Week can once again become a premier global sailing event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
