The Black Friday period has only just begun, yet Vegvisir Race Nyborg 2026 is already showing a strong and promising trend.

Already now we can promise the spectator crowds of Nyborg that the starts of Vegivisir Race 2026 will be spectacular as the fleet is growing and shows a broad variety of elite and recreational sailors from pure racers to cuisers.

With the first 30 two-person (2Star) boats signed up, we have now entered Tier 2 Super Early Bird for the 2Star category — still offering massive Black Friday savings of around 35% compared to the August price.

For singlehanded sailors, the pressure is even higher :👉 Only 2 Ultra Early Bird tickets remain before Tier 2 pricing activates.

This year’s early sign-ups also reveal an exciting shift in the fleet composition — and it’s one we are incredibly proud of.

In 2026 there will be a new spot to watch Vegvisir Race as the fleet will round to Fly By Marks in the old ferry harbour Knudshoved.

Clear Growth Compared to This Time Last Year

Across all categories, we’re seeing:

More Danish crews joining early
More young sailors, boosted by the Young Gun offer
More women on the start line — already 11 registered
More multihulls entering the race — 4 boats so far
A broader international field, with boats now confirmed from Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland

This mix of nationalities, experience levels, and boat types is exactly what makes Vegvisir Race such a unique gathering point for the offshore community.
