The Tall Ships Races 2011 Stavanger

Stavanger has had the honour of being host port for The Tall Ships Races both in 1997 and 2004. In 2011 we intend to surpass ourselves a unique program of activities for all tastes and ages.

The ships will be berthed in our inner harbour, in the midst of the cities everyday life, and in walking distance from almost everything.

In 2011 Stavanger will again be an experience of a lifetime for the crews, a beneficial happening for the participating ships, with a fabulous background for media coverage and the perfect frame for sponsor activities.


Shanties & sea songs

This song tradition was brought forward by the first rock `n` rollers ever; the young and tough sailors from the great days of sail! We will do an effort to give the ship’s crew an opportunity to become more familiar with this song tradition, and hopefully encourage more shanty-singing ships for the future. Hey ho, lets go!

We guarantee that The Tall Ships Races 2011 Stavanger, 28 – 31 July will be a lifetime experience and look forward to see you and your ship here!
