The Skandia Docklands Invitational is held as part of Skandia Geelong Week the weekend prior to Australia Day with entertainment, activities and fireworks at Docklands, Melbourne.
Free to the general public is the Skandia "learn to sail" program for all age groups, Docklands Saturday January 17th & Sunday January 18th and Geelong Waterfront Saturday January 24th, Sunday January 25th and Monday January 26th 2008. Details to be confirmed.
Skandia Geelong Week is widely acknowledged as Australia's largest sailing event. First held in 1844, it is Victoria's oldest sporting event and attracts more than 400 yachts and 4000 sailors.
Having developed a sister relationship with the world's largest sailing regatta, Skandia Cowes Week in the United Kingdom, the regatta is set to become one of the world's leading yachting events.
