With 700 yachts, 610 exhibitors, 5km of pontoons, and 55,000 visitors each year, the Cannes Yachting Festival 2024 is set to be one of Europe’s most spectacular in-water boat shows. From 10th – 15th of September, dive into a world of luxury as you uncover the exhibitions, innovations, and exclusive VIP experiences that are sure to make your time at Cannes Boat Show one to remember.
The Cannes Yachting Festival 2024 is set in the heart of the French Riviera and officially marks the start of the boat-show season. Since its inception in 1977, it has grown to become one of Europe’s top in-water boat shows and the largest large sailing boat exhibition in the world.
Spanning six days from the 10-15th of September 2024, the Cannes Boat Show — located on the two ports of Cannes, the Vieux Port and the Port Canto — is set to welcome in excess of 55,000 attendees and exhibit nearly 700 boats including motor yachts, sailing boats, monohulls, multihulls, toys, superyachts, and much more.
Edmiston’s team of brokers will be at the port, offering our clients a chance to exhibit their yachts for sale and for prospective buyers to view the extensive fleet of yachts on offer while being part of the Edmiston VIP experience.
Across the two ports, the Cannes boat show 2024 offers a number of exciting exhibitions servicing all aspects of the maritime industry — from sailing and motor yachts to toys and equipment manufacturers.
The brokerage area located in Port Canto exhibits 24m+ yachts and will have a selection of around 50 pre-owned yachts for sale and for charter on display. Edmiston’s brokers will be here throughout the six days, providing a chance to tour these vessels, meet with the crew and get a true taste of the yachts interior and exterior spaces.
The Vieux Port showcases more than 350 yachts up to 45m across the full spectrum of designs, including monohulls, multihulls, rigid and semi-rigid hulls. On land, the shipyards share the quays with equipment manufacturers and service companies.
As part of the Edmiston VIP experience, our brokers can arrange show tickets, event and dinner reservations, along with access to the VIP clubs at the old Port and Port Canto, offering a place of rest to enjoy refreshments while taking in the excitement of the boat show and networking with industry professionals.
Those with platinum event tickets will be provided with helicopter transfer from the airport to the lounge and lunch at the panoramic restaurant or the Skippers restaurant.
Courtesy of Range Rover, Edmiston will be offering private chauffeured services to our VIP clients throughout the Cannes Boat Show, ensuring guests travel seamlessly between the different areas of the show.
The Cannes International Boat Show provides an outstanding opportunity to showcase your yacht to a range of genuine buyers. Edmiston has excellent post show success and continues to sell yachts twice as fast as the industry average.
