De BigLift|TU Delft slag om Delft is een match-race evenement midden in het centrum van Delft, in de Kolk. Dit jaar vindt de 8e editie plaats op zondag 9 oktober.
Bij een matchrace wordt één tegen één gevaren waarbij de boten elkaar voortdurend in het nauw proberen te drijven en zo penalty's aan de andere boot proberen op te leggen. Een penalty betekend een rondje draaien. Door het kleine vaarwater en de interactie tussen de boten de ideale gelegenheid om het wedstrijdzeilen eens van dichtbij te bekijken. Zondag is dan ook de mogelijkheid om met een hapje en een drankje dit spektakel gade te slaan.
