Traffic regulations are crucial for a smooth event

All regatta participants are requested to observe the special traffic regulations in and around the Kiel-Schilksee Olympic Center. 

Compliance is necessary
a) in order to receive the large number of boats coming to the Kiel Week
b) to keep the entrances to the harbour clear for ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars.

Non-compliance may call for enforcement by the police. Please note the details in the information sheet which you will receive at the entrance to the Olympic Centre or at the Race Office.
