The festivities kick off on Sunday, the 17th, at the dedicated event pontoon in the marina, with crew welcome running until 5:00 PM. A briefing will follow at 6:15 PM, along with the distribution of Marine Pool packages, a partner of the shipyard. The evening will carry on with a welcoming cocktail reception in a cozy setting by the harbor.

Tuesday is dedicated to culture and culinary delights, featuring a visit to a local distillery and rum tasting. Participants will continue this convivial moment with a beachside lunch, followed by leisurely exploration of the region for the remainder of the day.
On the last day, the competition will kick back into gear with the final two racing rounds launching from the marina. Wrapping up the day will be a dinner and prize-giving ceremony, rewarding the best performances and marking the grand finale of this AMEL Cup.
