The Cannes Boat and Yacht Festival takes place annually on France’s famous Riviera and it is one of the largest in Europe, an ideal place for boat builders to show off their superyachts.

It’s aimed at professionals and it brings together players from the international market of yachting as well as importers of sailboats or yachts. It usually showcases almost six hundred boats, including motor yachts, superyachts, catamarans, tenders and sailing yachts.

The Cannes Yachting Festival is open to the general public and it is a great opportunity to meet the biggest names in the nautical industry and their latest innovations.

The festival is held every September at Cannes’ ports, the Vieux Port and the Port Pierre Canto. So if you happen to be somewhere on the French Riviera in September, then you might be lucky enough to see the show. The Festival usually lasts for 6 days.
