Sponsor sought for Europe’ largest, free, annual family festival

Sail Training International has launched a new sponsorship website to support its ongoing search for a Title Partner for the annual Tall Ships Races.

Following the highly successful partnership which The Tall Ships Races enjoyed with the city of Szczecin, Poland, between 2010 and 2013, the search is now on for a company or city that wishes to benefit from a strategic involvement with The Tall Ships Races over the coming years. 

The new website has been designed to provide an introduction to the opportunities that exist for potential sponsors.

On offer is a unique sponsorship ‘property’ which offers a powerful set of core values, international reach and high spectator footfall.

Sail Training International’s Chief Operating Officer, Gwyn Brown said, “The new sponsorship website provides a great introduction for potential commercial partners to The Tall Ships Races. 

“s Europe’s largest, annual, free family festival The Tall Ships Races offer a fantastic platform for companies wishing to communicate directly with consumers in our host cities.

What is sail training?

Sail Training is an adventure activity, which includes far more than sailing instruction. Participants are required to confront demanding challenges, both physical and emotional. It is an activity that inspires self-confidence and personal responsibility. It promotes an acceptance of others, whatever their social or cultural backgrounds, and develops a willingness to take controlled risks. Those who undertake Sail Training on Tall Ships generally find it a positive life-changing experience.
