Foiling Week, held in Europe since 2014 on Italy’s Lake Garda, returns to the USA for a seven-day celebration of the future of watercraft mobility. With previous editions held in Newport, RI (2016) and Miami, FL (2018), the 2025 event will be on February 24-March 2 in Pensacola, FL
“Foiling Week Pensacola is the culmination of Sail Pensacola’s first year of work and will bring a whole new international appreciation of our town as a vacation option,” said Timothy Ryschon, President of Sail Pensacola.
“The event is set on a four-year minimum cycle and will dramatically accelerate our goals by generating new interest in sailing, demonstrating diversity in the sport, showcasing the Pensacola Bay for racing events, increasing adoption of foiling technology in the U.S., and bringing industry attention to Pensacola as ‘the’ epicenter for future high-performance marine design and manufacturing.”
Event producer Luca Rizzotti adds, “Foiling isn’t only about the excitement of competition, it is a symbol of innovation that leads to progress in marine transportation, ecological undertakings, and our delightful and very strong bond with the sea.”
Aside from a lineup activities, Foiling Week Pensacola will host racing classes on Pensacola Bay such as the WASZP, Moth, and iQFOiL plus on-water demonstrations featuring foiling boats and boards.
Foiling Week Pensacola will be the occasion to set a Foiling Trade Show dedicated to consumers, showcasing the latest in nautical hi-tech gadgets and apparel.
