Argentario Week – Miramis Trophy is one of the most eagerly anticipated events on the international classic and vintage sailing calendar. Every year, in the second half of June, Porto Santo Stefano becomes the beating heart of the global historic yachting scene, welcoming extraordinary boats from every corner of the globe.

Organized by the Santo Stefano Yacht Club under the patronage of the Ministry of Tourism, the Region of Tuscany, and the Municipality of Monte Argentario, the regatta brings together boat owners, crews, and sailing enthusiasts from over ten countries and three continents. The fleet includes classic, vintage, and Spirit of Tradition yachts divided into categories such as Big Boats, Gaff Vintage, Marconi Vintage, Classic IOR, and Swan Classic, each with its own story to tell.

The historic port of Pilarella hosts the boats throughout the event, offering crews the opportunity to experience the authentic atmosphere of one of Tuscany’s most charming seaside villages.

Founded in 1992 as“Le Vele d’Argento,Argentario Week is now a leading international event that combines sporting competition, the preservation of nautical heritage, and the promotion of theArgentarioregion.
