The IHCA and Organising Authority for the 2026 Hansa Class European Championships wish to advise of a change of date.

The event will now take place from September 13th to 19th at BISC Barcelona.

The change of date came about due to a lack of accessible and affordable flights and accommodation during the originally scheduled week of the Championships, mainly due to a medical conference being held at the same time with over 20,000 expected attendees.

We understand that some sailors and teams will have already secured accommodation, and we apologize for any inconvenience this date change causes. By moving the Championships back by a week should ensure that all sailors who wish to attend will now have the opportunity to do so.

Race documents are now being finalised and will be posted to this page at the event website – https://hansaregionals.org/european/
