CANNES YACHTING FESTIVAL
EUROPE ’ S NO . 1 BOAT SHOW 10 TO 15 SEPTEMBER 2024
The 47th edition of the Cannes Yachting Festival – the inaugural event of the sailing season and Europe ’ s largest inwater boat show – is back from 10 to 15 September 2024 , at the heart of the French Riviera .
From the Vieux Port to Port Canto , the show , which benefits from a new marina covering 2,000 m ², will bring together the best of what the international boating sector offers and feature more than 160 new products and world previews . With 600 exhibitors from all over the world presenting almost 700 monohull , multihull , rigid , semirigid , new or previously owned sail and motor boats from 5 to 50 metres long , alongside a host of the latest-generation equipment , the Cannes Yachting Festival is the unmissable event for yachting .
A NEW CONFIGURATION TO SHOWCASE THE 700 BOATS PRESENTED
A great new feature this year : Port Canto , with its new Marina dedicated to Power Boats , will almost equal the Vieux Port in terms of the number of boats on display . In fact almost 350 boats will be exhibited each side of the Croisette . For the first time , visitors will be able to go all the way round Port Canto , in a +/ - 2.5 km loop . The port will offer an even clearer and simplified tour with virtually a quay , or a large area , dedicated to a type of boat . Located between the Sailing and Yacht Brokerage & Toys areas that have been accommodated in Port Canto for several years , the new area dedicated to power boats will cover around 2,000 m ² and provide more than 300 m of linear quayside to present 170 motor boats ( 140 inwater and thirty ashore ), with rigid or semirigid hulls . A selection of outboard engines suitable for these boat sizes will also be presented next to the boats .
Port Canto will also be exhibiting 120 new sail boats over 10 metres long and around 50 previouslyowned large yachts from 24 metres long , exhibited respectively in the Sailing and Yacht Brokerage areas .
