On this page below is the Basic Schedule for 34th Defense of the
America's Cup in 2013, with an overview of all regatta dates.
Follow these links to focus on particular portions of the 2013
America's Cup Schedule:
The America's Cup World Series
Regatta dates are included below along with the 2013 Louis
Vuitton Cup, which will select the Challenger for the America's
Cup, and the America's Cup Match itself.
For 2011-12:
Three venues (Cascais, Plymouth, and San Diego) were announced
for 2011 as of June 2, with three more (Newport, Venice, and
Naples) named in late summer. Up to eight ACWS regattas
were expected in each season, and potential events were under

logistics and funding were not sorted out in time to include
those events in the 2011-12 season, leaving a total of six ACWS
Regattas for the season.
For 2012-13:
A total of three events are slated for San Francisco and Naples.
