The 150th anniversary of the Cardigan Bay Regatta was held in New Quay, Wales. The event featured a variety of sailing races, including dinghy and cruiser competitions, alongside inshore activities such as sea swimming, paddleboarding, and the return of the Odd Job Boat Race.

While the first two days of the regatta enjoyed favorable sailing conditions, the third day was impacted by weather challenges. High winds and large waves led to the cancellation of dinghy racing and restricted keelboat activity due to safety concerns. Despite these conditions, the milestone event drew participants from regions including Cornwall, Derbyshire, and North Wales.
