Klipperrace 2025 – 50ste jubileumeditie!

11 October 2025
12 October 2025

The Enkhuizer Klipperrace has been a unique sailing spectacle since 1975.

This two-day race for clippers and related ship types starts in Enkhuizen and is organized in collaboration with the Enkhuizer Watersportvereniging ‘Almere’ by the Enkhuizer Klipperrace Committee.

The famous Three Cities Race will be held on Saturday. This race begins with a spectacular anchor start in the Krabbersgat near Enkhuizen. Then, two of the three designated buoys must be rounded. These buoys are located near Medemblik, Stavoren, and Urk. The finish is again in the Krabbersgat.

On Sunday, a trapezoid course will be sailed. The two classes will start one after the other, and the courses will partially overlap, keeping the field close together throughout the race, ensuring a fantastic racing experience for the participants.

This year, on Saturday, October 11th, and Sunday, October 12th, the 50th edition of the Clipper Race will be celebrated. This anniversary year promises to be extra spectacular. With exciting races on the IJsselmeer, a vibrant program in the city center, and numerous free activities for all ages, sailing enthusiasts, or anyone simply looking for a fun weekend. Don’t miss it!

Interesting to know: The Clipper Race Enkhuizen has been officially designated as Intangible Heritage of the Netherlands this year.
