Naples hosts the Louis Vuitton 38th America's Cup in spring and summer 2027. Challenger racing begins on May 22, with the Louis Vuitton Cup deciding who will face Defender Emirates Team New Zealand in the America's Cup Match, starting July 10. The Match is scheduled to run through July 19 if required. Racing takes place in the Bay of Naples, with the course off the city waterfront.
The Louis Vuitton 38th America's Cup takes place in Naples from May 22 to July 19, 2027, with the America's Cup Match scheduled to begin on July 10. Racing is planned in the Bay of Naples, close to the waterfront; team bases are being developed in Bagnoli. The 2027 spectator access, ticketing, transport and parking arrangements should be checked on the official America's Cup site before travel. Do not assume that the free public access used for the 2026 preliminary regatta will automatically apply in 2027.
Naples offers a dramatic waterfront setting for the Cup, with the race area between the city coast and the Gulf of Naples. The official Race Village and viewing locations will be especially useful for following the races from shore; check the organiser’s event map as 2027 details are published. Visitors should plan accommodation and local travel early for this multi-week event.
