TIMETABLE
The 14th edition of REGATTA ESCP is getting closer and closer, but while we wait, it's now time to share with you the timetable for all the 4 magic days!
DAY 1 - THURSDAY 19TH
We will be ready to welcome you at the Port of Molo Beverello (Naples) on Thursday, and we will provide you with the ferry boat ticket. Please, bear in mind that the last ferry boat will depart at 17:20, therefore, we suggest you to plan your arrival to Naples on Thursday morning or early afternoon. Furthermore, the check-in will be open from 8 until 18 pm. During this day, you will be able to have some free time to chill, relax, and meet the other participants. But, then at 16 there will be for those interested a beach clean-up sponsored by Plastic Free, which will last until 18 more or less. And yes, don't worry, we will provide all the material needed to do it. Later on, at 20:30 will start the opening ceremony and the first night event themed "Dolce Vita Style". The theme is inspired by the famous film by Federico Fellini, a symbol of Italian style and elegance all over the world.
DAY 2 - FRIDAY 20TH
Good morning Regatters! Your second day will start with a big breakfast, which will be open from 8 to 10 am. While in the meantime, from 9:30 until 10 the skipper briefing will happen (skippers only). From 11 until 18:30 you will be able to sail and chill on your boat with the rest of the participants. Lunch will be given to you before leaving the port! Moving on with the early evening, wear your favourite white dress because at 19:30 the MBA/B2B Dinner will start (only on invite), and for the rest of the crew at 20:00 the second night themed "White Party" will begin!
DAY 3 - SATURDAY 21ST

The morning will start as usual with a copious breakfast, and from 10 until 13, you will have time to chill or to network with our numerous sponsors and the other regatters. But then, get ready and don't forget to wear some SPF, since we are going back into the water and from 13 until 14 the actual Regatta Race will take place! But no worries, the time on the boat is not finished, and we will have boat parties until 18. Get yourself back together folks, because at 20:30 the Gala will start and we want to remember that the theme is "007", furthermore we can't wait to see you in your black tie outfits!
DAY 4 - SUNDAY 22ND
Oh no! It's day 4! It's time to leave Ischia, but not before a good breakfast which will terminate at 11:00.
