When the racing stops, Saint-Tropez comes alive

When the racing stops, Saint-Tropez comes alive


The 2026 Crew Parade brought the crews of Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez together for an evening of colour, costumes, music and celebration.


When the racing comes to an end, Saint-Tropez finds another way to celebrate sailing.
The 2026 Crew Parade transformed the harbour into a colourful gathering of crews from across the fleet, with costumes, music and performances replacing the intensity of the racecourse for one evening.

Held on October 1, the parade once again highlighted one of the defining traditions of Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez: the event is as much about the people and the culture surrounding sailing as it is about competition on the water.
Crews brought their own characters and style to the harbour, creating an atmosphere that was very different from the focused intensity of racing.

For one night, the harbour became a stage — bringing together sailors, teams and spectators in one of Saint-Tropez’s most distinctive traditions.
One night. Countless characters. One unforgettable sailing tradition.
