As Yacht Week celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2026, the brand is teaming up with Ultra Europeto launch a new “festival meets sailing” experience that combines VIP access to one of the world’s biggest electronic music festivals with a seven-day island-hopping adventure across Croatia’s Adriatic coast.

The collaboration offers travelers a different way to experience Ultra Europe, extending the party beyond Park Mladeži Stadium and onto the waters of Croatia with regattas, raft parties, beach clubs, and stops at some of the country’s most scenic islands.

Ultra Europe Meets Yacht Week

Running from July 11-18, the Yacht Week x Ultra Europe experience begins in Split, Croatia, with guests receiving two-day VIP access to Ultra Europe. The festival is set to feature artists including Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, Dom Dolla, FISHER, John Summit, Sara Landry, and more.

After the festival, the adventure continues aboard a fleet of yachts as more than 500 travelers sail along the Dalmatian coast. Prices start at £887 per person, with tickets currently available through Yacht Week.

Island Hopping Across Croatia

Following the opening weekend at Ultra Europe, guests will set sail from Split and visit several of Croatia’s most famous destinations, including Hvar, Bol, and Vis.

The itinerary includes:

• A regatta day with multiple yachts
• Tunnel raft parties
• Beach clubs and open-air events
• Stops at Carpe Diem Beach and Fort George in Vis
• Opportunities to explore caves, medieval towns, and local cuisine

The schedule balances organized events with free time, allowing travelers to enjoy Croatia’s landscapes and culture while maintaining the festival atmosphere throughout the week.

Celebrating 20 Years Of Yacht Week

Founded in 2006, Yacht Week has grown into one of the world’s most recognizable sailing experiences, attracting thousands of travelers every summer. In addition to Croatia, the company will host routes throughout Greece, Sicily, and French Polynesia during its 2026 season.

The Ultra Europe collaboration marks one of the brand’s biggest partnerships to date and reflects a growing trend toward experience-based travel, where music festivals become part of a larger vacation rather than the sole destination.

For electronic music fans looking to combine world-class DJs with crystal-clear waters and island nightlife, this might be one of the most unique ways to experience Ultra Europe next summer.

Tickets and additional information are available at Yacht Week.
