ILCA Oceania and Australian Championships 2027
Date: 1 January 2027 – 8 January 2027
Location: Sandringham Yacht Club, Melbourne, Australia
Organizer: ILCA Victoria / Australian ILCA Association
The Performance Sailcraft ILCA Oceania and Australian Open and Youth Championships run from 1 to 8 January 2027 at Sandringham Yacht Club on Port Phillip. The nationals crown Australian champions in the ILCA 4, ILCA 6 and ILCA 7 rigs across open, youth and masters divisions, and double as a key selection regatta for national squads. The 2027 edition carries extra weight because Sandringham also stages the ILCA Under 21 World Championships immediately afterwards, so a strong international entry is expected. The event is organised by ILCA Victoria with support from Performance Sailcraft Australia, Bayside City Council and the Victorian Government.
