Alamitos Bay Yacht Club and Long Beach Yacht Club, the organizing authority for the Ullman Sails Long Beach Race Week, regretfully announce the cancelation of the regatta scheduled for late June 2020.

Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, it was decided it would be difficult to hold the event while following current health protocols. Organizers say they hope all their sailors, volunteers and sponsors remain healthy and safe, and look forward to hosting the event June 25 to 27, 2021. All current paid entrants will be automatically refunded their entry fees.

ABYC and LBYC also offered thanks to sponsors for their continued support of Long Beach Race Week, and appealed to sailors to continue their support of them: Ullman Sails, Swinerton Construction, Coral Reef Sailing Apparel, The Moorings, The Boat House, Bruce Ayers, Mt. Gay Rum, The Oriana Shea Group, Gelson's Market, Evan's Manufacturing, Long Beach Marine Bureau and Long Beach City Council Representative Susie Price.
