Welcome to Fredrikstad!
Today The Tall Ships’ Races start in Fredrikstad. The first ships had already arrived at their berths before the weekend, but the festival kicks off today. Welcome to Fredrikstad!

More than half of the Tall Ships have withdrawn
02.08.05 High winds in the North Sea have dominated The Tall Ships´ Races since the last leg of the regatta began in Newcastle on Thursday. 44 of the competing vessels have now withdrawn from the regatta, many because of seasickness amongst the crew. But all is well with both ships and crews and the wind will decrease as the ships approach the Norwegian coast. Most of the vessels that have abandoned the race are still intent on coming to Fredrikstad.
Next stop Fredrikstad!
