The Experience Club Official Hospitality at Cowes Week
Have a blast in Cowes...
Since 1826 Cowes Week has played a key part in the British sporting summer calendar and is one of the UK’s longest running and most successful sporting events. It now stages up to 40 daily races for around 1,000 boats and is one of the largest and best-known sailing regattas in the world.
Cowes Week is a great mix of competitive sailing and social activities. The 8,500 competitors range from Olympic and world class professionals to weekend sailors. In excess of 100,000 spectators come to watch the sailing, enjoy the parties and live entertainment, and to experience the unique atmosphere. It is a one-of-a-kind event.

What to Expect
The Experience Club, from official hospitality provider Keith Prowse, offers an affordable day out at Cowes Week, with a wide range of VIP benefits for individuals and corporate groups.
The Experience Club is a purpose built private lounge located in the heart of the marina village in Cowes Yacht Haven providing the perfect hospitality base for you and your guests.
The day will start with a short welcome to Cowes Week over an informal breakfast, followed by a day that can be as action-packed or relaxed as you like. There’ll be interactive sailing activities in The Experience Club and you‘ll have plenty of time if you want to explore the event enjoying some of the live entertainment, retail therapy in Cowes, and watching the race starts under cannon fire from under the battlements of the Royal Yacht Squadron; one of the world’s most prestigious yacht clubs.
Back at base, the balcony of the private lounge overlooks the marina where the racing yachts are moored providing you with a fantastic view of the hustle and bustle as the teams prepare their boats and then return from a hard days racing. Here you can escape the crowds within the relaxed environment of The Experience Club, grab a bite to eat from the buffet, enjoy a beer or glass of wine and soak up the atmosphere.
A private 8 man RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat), capable of speeds in excess of 50mph, will be on standby - complete with professional skipper - to take you on an exhilarating blast around the Solent so that you can enjoy the racing action up close.
At 4pm, time will be called at The Experience Club bar and you’ll have the chance to enjoy the stories being shared by the crews after a hard-days racing in the main bar areas, and soak up the famously electric “après-sail” atmosphere of the event until late into the evening.
See you again soon for your next "experience".
