The president of Louis Vuitton, Yves Carcelle, along with Michel
Bonnefous, CEO of America's Cup Management extended the party at the Beijing
You Jing Ge. The America's Cup concert will be aired in April on MTV in China
and also on three major national channels: CCTV 3, 4 and 5 and 28 syndicated
channels.

This event was also the perfect occasion to promote and
increase the awareness of sailing and the America's Cup in China.

Since 1983, the Louis Vuitton Cup, has been the prologue to
the America's Cup, serving to designate the official challenger. For the
first time, this is to be preceded by a series of preliminary regattas, the
Louis Vuitton Acts.

Europe has already witnessed some first-class racing, as Louis
Vuitton Acts have been contested in Marseille and Malmo, Trapani and
Valencia, the Spanish port city which will host the Louis Vuitton Acts 10,11
and 12 from May to July 2006 in Valencia and both the Louis Vuitton Cup and
the America's Cup from Spring 2007.
