The Ritz-Carlton Hotel de la Paix will open a pop-up café on the shores of Lake Geneva. It’s a gourmet way to experience the Switzerland Sail Grand Prix right in the heart of the action.

In conjunction with the 2026 Switzerland Sail Grand Prix, the Ritz-Carlton Hotel de la Paix will set up shop on the shores of Lake Geneva with the opening of the Ritz-Carlton Lake Café. Located across from the hotel on the Quai du Mont-Blanc, this pop-up venue will be open to the public free of charge from Friday, September 18, through Sunday, September 20.

F50 Catamarans

Designed in partnership with the American SailGP team, the venue will feature race broadcasts, meet-and-greets with athletes, interactive activities, and a chance to explore the impressive F50 catamarans, capable of speeds exceeding 110 km/h. A selection of treats and refreshments will naturally round out the experience.

On Sunday, the Ritz-Carlton will also offer a more exclusive package aboard a private Pardo 38 yacht. Departing from the hotel, participants will be able to watch the races directly from the lake, with on-board dining available. This is a paid experience, available by reservation only.
