News Talk 630 WPRO & 99.7 FM and Prescott Point are proud to sponsor the Ocean State Tall Ships Festival sailing into Newport July 6th-9th!

The scenic and historic waterfront of Newport is the idyllic setting to observe the splendor of the tall ships, and families delight in the majesty of the Parade of Sail through Newport Harbor. This event will also feature exhibits, food, music and family entertainment. Children especially enjoy boarding these remarkable vessels, and the opportunity to meet international crew members provides all visitors with insight into the many unique cultures that have helped to shape the past and future of sailing.

Be listening to the WPRO Morning News with Tara Granahan and Andrew Gobeil for your chance to win passes to the festival and join the Buddy Cianci Show for a live broadcast from the Newport Shipyard! You can also sail onboard one of these historic vessels in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Or, enjoy a catered brunch under a tent, while you watch the Parade of Sail from the very best vantage point on the North Lawn of Fort Adams. Reserved parking included. Visit oceanstatetallships.com today to purchase tickets.
