Despite some local opposition to the date change, it has been approved and given the go-ahead. Which must be quite a relief for organiser Nigel Howell, who can now carry on pulling together the 11th festival that will host the biggest Windsurfing World Event ever held in the UK!


That’ll be The World Windsurfing Racing Championships 2007. This event will attract over 100 racers from 40 countries and will be one of just three World Wide events that determines the World Champion 2007! All happening right here on the Isle of Wight.

As well as this, there is tons of new stuff happening at White Air this year, making it one of the most important ‘must-go’ events of the year. Expect live music, Quay Arts by-the-sea, digital-DJ mixing, and masses of ‘have-a-go’ events.
