Kent and Laura will be at the America’s Cup Barcelona Fanzones, weekend 11 to 12 Oct. Also meet us at “The Comedy Clubhouse Barcelona” Friday 11 October at 7pm! We booked our flights and accommodation over ten months ago, so we are very excited to be going.
We are going to Barcelona for the weekend to support Team NZ for the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup in Barcelona. We expect to catch up with our group of 20 to 30+ America’s Cup fans and “Kiwis in Spain” friends.

We have decided our best option is to join as many fans as possible at the Plaça del Mar Fanzone (open 12:00–8:00pm).

America’s Cup Barcelona Fanzones
The race course is about 1.7nm long (about 3km) and between 0.5nm and 0.8nm (0.9km to 1.5km) wide, with boundaries on all sides that the boats must stay within. All the spectators’ boats have a designated yellow zone to look at the race.
It’s called a windward-leeward course, named after the orientation of the course directly into the wind and away from the wind. From the start, the yachts race directly upwind – to windward, round the first mark then downwind, or to leeward. Rinse and repeat.
At three minutes to the start, the boats “enter” – sailing from above and outside the start line, and from opposite ends. This is the beginning of the “pre-start”. The teams take turns over which side they enter from, as the boat coming in from the right-hand side has the advantage – with the right-of-way.
