Due to circumstances that varied by class only three out of 12 of the Vintage Yachting Classes participated in the 2018 Vintage Yachting Games at Hellerup.
The Øresund in front of the Hellerup Sejlklub was during the 2018 Vintage Yachting Games one of the targets of the remains of the Hurricane Florence. This resulted in South-Westerly winds that varied between 12 and 38 knots over the period of the Vintage.

| 18-SEP-2018 | Grand yachting weather All classes at race area Alpha | SW | 12-16 |
| 19-SEP-2018 | Strong yachting weather 12' Dinghies moved to race area Bravo | SW | 15-20 |
| 20-SEP-2018 | Strong yachting weather 12' Dinghies on race area Bravo Wind veered and died when Florance announced herself | SW veering to NW | 20-4 |

| 22-SEP-2018 | Very strong yachting weather Soling moved to race area Bravo 12' Dinghy and O-Jolle cancelled | SW | 22-31 |
Since all three classes just had major championships that include measurement, no measurement took place in this Vintage.
The opening ceremony took place in the main hall of the club house of the Hellerup Sejlklub. The formal opening was done by Rasmus Knude of Hellerup Sejlklub.
Due to the weather conditions the VIP race could not be started. So the closing ceremony started with the prize giving by Lars Ive and Peter Lübeck Stephenson.
During the closing of the event Rudy den Outer handed over stainless remembrance plate with the Vintage logo to Peter Lübeck Stephenson. He also announced that the Union-Yacht-Club Attersee will be the host of the next Vintage Yachting Games. However, before the date will be set an evaluation with the classes and organizers will take place. After that the Vintage flag was received from Lars Ive, representing the Copenhagen organization. The flag was subsequently handed over to Stephan Beurle representing Austria as the next host country.

Races in all events were sailed in a fleet racing format of eight scheduled races. The contestants raced around a course in one group, and each boat earned a score equal conform the bonus point system. Due to wind conditions not all scheduled races could be sailed.
Per class separate pages reporting the facts are available (see the details section per class in the medals table).
Due to the weather conditions the VIP race could not be sailed. Since all winners came from the Netherlands the decision was made to sail the VIP race on a later date in 2018/2019 somewhere in the Netherlands. This is in line with the history of the 12' Dinghy at the 1920 Summer Olympics were the last race was not sailed in Belgium but in The Netherlands.
