Brest – Host village

An exceptional location between harbor and ocean

Located in the heart of the Moulin Blanc marina, at the entrance to Brest harbor, the championship site offers ideal waters for ocean racing: sheltered for logistics, but quickly exposed to the winds and dynamic conditions of the harbor.

The nautical center, perfectly connected to the pontoons and launch areas, provides an efficient reception point for athletes and their teams.

It is in this modern, accessible setting, resolutely focused on the sea, that the European Ocean Racing Championship village will be set up, a true meeting place and hub of activity at the heart of the event.

The European Championship Village

Private area dedicated to athletes

In this private area, athletes will have access to a place to rest and socialize, a photo call, a massage area, a press area, a bar, a games area, and Wi-Fi.

The animations

An entertainment area open to the general public will feature a food court, water sports activities, a venue for entertainment and concerts, exhibitor stands, and areas reserved for partners and VIPs. This area will also allow visitors to follow the races live.

An administrative area

Rooms will be made available to carry out all functions related to the management of the European Championships, as well as for anti-doping controls.

A boat storage area

A designated area will be set aside for storing all of the athletes' boats.

A fully secure site

Throughout the championship, a private company will ensure the security of the entire site with the presence of a security guard and a dog handler.
