This year, the Monaco Yacht Show is also making headlines with an anniversary that almost seems secondary given the sheer abundance of exhibits: the show is celebrating its 35th birthday. Congratulations! From 23 to 26 September 2026, around 120 superyachts are expected to moor in the Principality once again – including 42 new builds that were only delivered this year.
The 111-metre “Leviathan” with the support vessel “Draak”
There’s plenty to see even from a distance of 55 metres. One of the very largest is the 102-metre-long ‘Nixie’ by Lürssen, which is moored at Quai Rainier 1er and is almost as long as Oceanco’s 111-metre-long “Leviathan”. The largest exhibit in the harbour is accompanied by the support vessel “Draak” (93 m). Damen Yachting is putting the 80-metre-long Amels “Pangea” and the 60-metre “QU2” in the spotlight. And Sanlorenzo is presenting, amongst other vessels, the 72-metre “Silver Fox”.
“What this trade fair has to offer cannot be found anywhere else in the world,” says Martin Hager, editor-in-chief of BOOTE EXCLUSIV, enthusiastically.
Tickets and opening times for the Monaco Yacht Show
Anyone wishing to take in the mega-events and enjoy a varied programme of receptions and award ceremonies should book a ticket in advance. It now costs 770 euros for one day – a further 45 euros more than in 2025.
The show will be open from 24 to 26 September 2026, Thursday and Friday from 10.00 am to 6.30 pm, and Saturday from 10.00 am to 6.00 pm. From 8.30 am each day, and on Wednesday 23 September, entry to the Dock Area is restricted to exhibitors and those with a personal VIP invitation from MYS or an exhibitor. monacoyachtshow.com
