Online commentary for the Cowes Week Regatta
COWES WEEK 2022: JULY 30 - AUGUST 6

After our 35+ years on air, Cowes Live currently cannot find any funding support to enable us to set up and run the much loved FM radio station at this year’s Cowes Week.
We’re looking for airtime sponsors that may be able to help. If you would like to reach 100,000 competitors, spectators and local people right across the solent, we’d love to hear from you.
