185 years strong – help us keep the regatta sailing on

The Auckland Anniversary Day Regatta has marked the City of Sails’ birthday for 185 years thanks to passionate people like you – our sailors, paddlers, boaties, volunteers and supporters.

As we look ahead to the next chapter, we’re searching for a new naming rights sponsor to help grow and sustain this iconic event into the future. The regatta is more than just a race day – it’s a vibrant celebration of our maritime heritage and a vital part of Auckland’s identity.

This is a rare and exclusive opportunity for one company or organisation to put their name on one of Auckland’s most iconic events. It’s a chance to take sole brand ownership of the biggest one-day regatta in the world, and New Zealand’s oldest sporting event.

How you can help:

  • Know a brand, business or organisation that would benefit from this exclusive opportunity?
  • Work with someone who’d love to be seen as a champion of our community and maritime history?
  • Or simply want to support the cause?

Please download and share our Sponsorship Opportunities brochure, or make a personal intro by emailing admin@regatta.org.nz or calling 0800 REGATTA – we’d love to connect.

Together, we can ensure the regatta continues to thrive into the future.
