The Aberdeen Tall Ships Races 2025
Ahoy Aberdeen! It’s all hands on deck this weekend for The Tall Ships Races as they sail into the city port for a four-day maritime celebration!
A magnificent armada of 50+ vessels, ranging from large sailing ships to smaller single-masted boats, will arrive in Aberdeen on Saturday, 19th July after racing all the way from Dunkirk, France. This international fleet will be docked and dazzling until Tuesday, 22nd July, when they set sail for Kristiansand in Norway.
Get ready for Europe’s largest free family event where there’s fun for all ages, including street food and bars, headline Quayside Concerts, market stalls, a breathtaking Red Arrows display, and a fabulous fun fair!
