 NEW THIS YEAR! For the first time, Six Senses Phuket Raceweek will have free-flowing beer, wine and spirits throughout each party, in part courtesy of our Official Suppliers Mont Clair Wines and Johnnie Walker Soda Mix. Even more, the free drinks tap is switched on an hour earlier for the Rodenstock Happy Hour, courtesy of great regatta supporters, Rodenstock German Eyewear. See below for Rodenstock Happy Hour times.
The rest of the format is the same as for the last four years: Four days of racing, no lay day. Five nights of parties.
The regatta HQ — registration, results, prizegivings and all regatta administration — will be operated from the lower sea view terrace (Into The Beach) of Evason Phuket & Six Senses Spa, adjacent to the jetty. Into the Beach is also the venue for the post-race Regatta Tavern and four of the five official regatta parties.
Into the Beach's Regatta Tavern offers ice-cold post-race beers at Ao Chalong-type prices, quick snacks + mood music from Trevor... This is the place to gather off the water and chew the fat. Ask anyone who has been there for Raceweek — this is one of the best regatta venues going!
There will be shuttle boats from the Evason for boats anchored in Ao Chalong, although past experience has shown that there is ample available anchorage right off the regatta venue.
All race starts will take place at 10:00 hrs off the Evason Phuket.

This year's Six Senses Phuket Raceweek features Unicorn, Thailand's undisputed best all-girl rock n' roll band, on Saturday 26 July at the Raimon Land party at Ratri Jazztaurant and on Sunday 27 July for the closing party at Evason's Into the Beach. Raceweek organisers, together with Raimon Land, have liberated the six girls for the weekend from their regular gig at one of Bangkok's top nightspots, Titanium, to play for the first time in Phuket. |

Dom, Tai, Tu, Wi and Purn have been friends since childhood. They grew up together in Thailand and went to school and university together. Joined more recently by the sixth band member, Ning, they deliver covers of a very high standard - whether it's Rock, Soul, R&B, Reggae or pure pop - both Western and Thai, all woven together with some of their own songs. According to reviewers, you do NOT have to be under 20 to enjoy...
For more on the girls, visit www.unicorngirlband.com
When Unicorn are not playing, music and (not too much) natter - not to mention co-ordination of everything happening onstage - will be provided courtesy of Trevor and Paul. Those who know them... know them. Those who don't soon will. |
