MidsummerSailTöre Festival 2026

AGORA Direct MidsummerSail is an offshore race across the Baltic Sea—from its southernmost to its northernmost point. For 2026, the start is on June 21 at 13:00 (midsummer), with a race time limit until July 5 at 13:00. The course is about 900 nautical miles (1670 km): start in the bay of Wismar and finish in Töre next to a yellow buoy. The Baltic is one of the world’s most beautiful sailing areas: hardly any tides and, in summer, near-constant daylight. Expect everything from drifting calm to strong winds, from all directions. It’s the perfect balance between a holiday passage and a true offshore challenge—and it’s called “the longest & toughest” Baltic race for a reason. In 2026, a GPS tracker is used on every boat, and you may choose ORC or IRC corrected results (optional). For the latest documents, starting lists and updates, check the official website.
