Sunset+Vine to produce 52 Super Series sailing highlights

Sunset+Vine is to distribute five 26-minute highlight programmes and news services for the 2026 52 Super Series.

The 52 Super Series is in its 15th year and this year has three new teams joining the circuit

In a series first, Lanzarote will host two regattas, where stronger, more consistent trade winds on the Atlantic should ensure fast racing. The climax of the season will be back in Valencia in early October.

The season is already under way, having opened with Puerto Portals Portal 52 Super Series Sailing Week in Mallorca at the start of May. The Rolex TP52 World Championship in Porto Cervo, Sardinia is now on, racing from 15-20 June.

Over 70 broadcasters across 147 countries will air the five 26-minute highlight programmes, including CNBC, Fox Australia, The Turkish Radio, Television Corporation (TRT), Bulgarian National Television (BNT), SPOTV and Dubai Sport.

Each programme goes behind-the-scenes with the top teams and aspiring crews.

Throughout the season, the Sunset+Vine news team will produce daily digital wraps and five video news releases, one issued for each event in both English and Spanish.

Bespoke content in local languages will also be made available to a worldwide network of 6,000 news contacts.

Sunset+Vine has served as host broadcaster and distributor for several World Championships, including the 2023 Allianz Sailing World Championships in The Hague and has also produced and distributed the popular World Sailing magazine show for over 20 years.
