The Swan Tuscany Challenge (April 17- April 21), in Marina di Scarlino, home to the swans, will officially open the 2024 season of the United Nations League Swan One Design. The inaugural race of 2024 will have as protagonists the ClubSwan 36 and ClubSwan 50 classes with 20 crews in Italian Tuscany waters.

The event starts on Thursday with the first races of the ClubSwan 36 and will follow the ClubSwan 50 on Friday, together they will compete until Sunday, April 21, when the winners of the Swan Tuscany Challenge will be crowned.

DutchSail and Yacht Club Italiano, both ClubSwan 36, will join the fleet for the first time in Scarlino. Both are teams of young people, the first one is from the Netherlands, with a crew made up entirely of under 26 years of age with three women on board; the second is a group of young people, members of the oldest Yacht Club in Italy, who will be accompanied for this first event by the already veteran Stefano Orlandi. The project has the full support of ClubSwan Racing, who really believes it will be a good way for young light sailing regatists to learn to be competitive on larger ships.

The fleet will then move to two new and exceptional headquarters, Bonifacio (France) and Alghero (Italy), along with the consolidated Spanish headquarters of Valencia and Palma de Mallorca.

The Swan One Design fleet will then head to the Swan Bonifacio Challenge (May 28 - June 1), in this picturesque jewel of Corsica. With the strait of the same name as a backdrop, where nature is the protagonist, the races take place in this impressive natural amphitheater.

The next stage of the circuit will be the Swan Sardinia Challenge (25-29 June) in the attractive Alghero. The old charm of the city will be the perfect backdrop for a week full of glamour. The social events and the picturesque old town will certainly offer a unique synergy of sport and charm.

The well-known international races Trophy S.M. The Queen (July 4-7) and the Copa del Rey Mapfre (July 27-August 3) will host the ClubSwan Racing during the months of July and August, in which ClubSwan 42 will visit two emblematic Mediterranean regatta houses: Real Nautical Club of Valencia and Real Nautical Club of Palma, very popular among the regatists and the ClubSwan community alike.

The culminating point of the next circuit is undoubtedly the 22nd edition of the Rolex Swan Cup (15-21 September), which will be held once again on the incomparable coast of Porto Cervo. This extraordinary event is possible thanks to a first-class and master cooperation between Rolex, the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (YCCS) and Nauthor Swan, a collaboration that this year celebrates its 40th anniversary.
