More than 100 free performances and activities will provide the perfect complement to the sight of 40 breathtaking vessels docked in Hartlepool Marina and waterfront from Thursday, July 6 to Sunday, July 9.

This is an iconic event that local people will always remember. There is a jam-packed programme of music, art, dance and song and of course there’s the Ships! It provides a unique opportunity to experience and appreciate different cultures, traditions, and maritime heritage. We can’t wait for a long weekend of celebrations. As a proud local business, we recognise the significant benefits that the Tall Ships Races can bring and we’re delighted to sponsor the prestigious event, helping to fund the celebrations and transform Hartlepool’s Waterfront. It is a pleasure to be part of something truly special that benefits the local community and leaves a lasting legacy beyond the event itself. The Tall Ships Races showcase Hartlepool and the North-East as world class international host and a place to do serious business. As well as driving positive economic, cultural and social change, we’re also giving young people the chance to have life-changing experiences.
Gillian Reader, Director, MGL Group
We are so pleased to have MGL Group on board for this incredible summer showpiece. I’m sure the team will be excited about being involved during a fantastic occasion that will attract thousands of visitors to Hartlepool from across the region and beyond. As a host port, Hartlepool will be celebrating for four days with music stages, world food markets, fireworks and pyrotechnics, while visitors will have the chance to see and get on board the beautiful ships.
