Explora Journeys Teaming Up with the 37th America’s Cup: A New Partnership Announced

Explora Journeys announced its new partnership as a Global Partner of the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup, which will take place this year in Barcelona, Spain.

Competing teams from the United States, UK, Italy, Switzerland, and France will participate in the Louis Vuitton Cup Challenger Series. They vie for the opportunity to compete against the Defender, Emirates Team New Zealand, in the Louis Vuitton America’s Cup Match.

In the spirit of the collaboration, Explora Journeys plans to host the America’s Cup trophy onboard the Explora I on June 19.

Pierfrancesco Vago, the executive chairman of the MSC Group’s Cruise Division, affirms: ”Our collaboration with the America’s Cup highlights our shared maritime roots and achievements. This partnership combines the rich narrative of the Cup’s history with our own 300-year maritime tradition. It epitomizes our commitment to quality, innovation, and a deep respect for the sea.”

“At Explora Journeys, we strive to redefine luxury at sea,” Vago adds further. “The design of the America’s Cup yachts represents an ongoing, evolving challenge that we meet with fervor and determination. With the likes of Explora I and the incoming Explora II, we are determined to establish new standards in design and craftsmanship. We share the same zeal for maritime innovation and uncompromising pursuit of perfection as the America`s Cup,” he concludes.

Grant Dalton, CEO of the America’s Cup Events, welcomes the new partnership: “We are thrilled to have Explora Journeys as a Global Partner to the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup. Their pursuit of creating unparalleled experiences at sea aligns well with ours. I am confident that the two months of races starting from August 22nd will showcase some of the most notable America’s Cup races to date.”

This partnership inaugurates a series of activations and events in Barcelona, Spain, including the Official Race Village. This will feature a dedicated area for Explora Journeys where guests can experience the Ocean State of Mind. Moreover, the Explora Journeys logo will feature during the broadcast of the races.
