Ticket packages now on sale as we mark six months to go to the 2022 World Rowing Coastal Championships and Beach Sprint Finals

Today (7 April) marks six months until the 2022 World Rowing Coastal Championships and Beach Sprint Finals (World Rowing Coastals) start in the most picturesque of locations, Saundersfoot, on the stunning Welsh coast.

The 2022 World Rowing Coastals will be hosted by British Rowing and Welsh Rowing over the weekends of 7-9 October and 14-16 October, bringing this exciting rowing format to the beautiful Pembrokeshire coastline.

As we mark this milestone, a number of hospitality tickets and general admission tickets are now on sale for this not-to-be missed event.

Hospitality package*

Hospitality guests can experience the relaxed, informal luxury atmosphere of the award-winning St Brides Spa Hotel, voted the Best Hotel in Wales by Visit Wales in 2018. Situated on a cliff top overlooking Saundersfoot Bay in the picturesque Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, this is the perfect location to view the World Rowing Coastals event.

​​Guests will arrive at the hotel from 9am for warm refreshments and early access to The Sun Lounge with its homely comfortable seating. They will have access to all of the viewing terraces from 11am including the Cliff Terrace which has a prime position overlooking the bay heading towards Wiseman’s Bridge and Amroth, offering some of the best views of all the action. The Hotel’s Sun Room will also be live-streaming all events throughout the day.

The package also includes a delicious lunch as well as warm beverages all day and access to both The Gallery Bar and St Brides Spa Hotel’s new outdoor bar.

Athletes can also buy tickets at a reduced rate, so it’s a chance to get close to the athletes and experience the vibe, the highs and the lows first-hand, as racing progresses for the coveted World Rowing medals.
