For the first time in its history, the Red Bull Air Race World Championship will bring an adrenaline-fuelled spectacle to the beautiful coastal town of Rovinj, Croatia from 12th to 13th April 2014.

Featured on the tour calendar alongside other host destinations, including Abu Dhabi, China and Las Vegas, Rovinj’s beachfront aerial obstacle will guarantee plenty of high octane action, complete with tight turns, high Gs, and potential gusts of ‘Bura’ winds – uniquely graced with a stunning Mediterranean backdrop.

Nestled in the hillside of the Golden Cape, a lush stretch of coastline bathed by the Lone Bay, Rovinj’s only two luxury hotels, Hotel Monte Mulini and Hotel Lone, are each offering  a two-night package, including front-row Race Club VIP tickets to enjoy the event in style.

Race Club guests will be treated to unrivalled views of the competition and luxury hospitality in an exclusive setting, as the world’s best race pilots, including British World Champion Paul Bonhomme, fly between 15 and 25 metres above the sea, at speeds of up to 370kph.

While in Rovinj, visitors can expect to feast on fresh seafood, including oysters from the Lim Channel – suitably paired with Istria’s famed ‘Malvasija’ wine, as well as Istrian prosciutto, cheeses, and delicious truffle-laced pasta dishes.

Hotel Lone package:

A two-night package for two adults sharing a double room at Hotel Lone, Croatia’s only member of Design Hotels™, includes breakfast, unlimited use of the spa, access to the Race Club VIP zone, and transport to the event area. Prices start at €1200 (per couple) and the package is available from 11-14 April 2014.
