These are numbers that turn a trade fair in Monaco into an event of superlatives. A record-breaking 120 superyachts with lengths of up to 119 metres are expected this year when it's showtime again from 24 to 27 September! The value of large formats in and in front of the Port Hercule has been estimated at around five billion euros during the trade fair in recent years. This year is not expected to be out of line.
The yachting spectacle lasts just four days, but is packed with an exclusive supporting programme. Numerous receptions, VIP parties, award ceremonies and conferences, such as the Monaco Yacht Summit, set trends and define the future of the superyacht industry. Topics relating to sustainable technologies and innovative design developments are discussed here. The trade fair not only impresses with its floating exhibits, the organisers also stage luxury experiences on land: Supercars, helicopters, tenders and private mini-submarines are just as much a part of the show as culinary delights at the highest level in Monaco's hotels and restaurants.
Nowhere else does the lifestyle of the super-rich manifest itself so impressively. This comes at a price: a day ticket costs a whopping 725 euros per person - another 30 euros more expensive than last year. A superlative in itself, which makes it clear that the world of UHNWIs is small and people want to keep to themselves.
In addition to the 120 yachts moored in the Principality this year, there is a whole fleet of brokerage yachts - mostly without masts - anchored in the bay of Roquebrune. The selection includes the 85-metre Lürssen "Giglia", the 80-metre "Al Reem" from Bilgin-Hallen, the 77.80-metre "Energy" from Amels, which is currently on sale at Fraser and Burgess for The selection includes the 77.70 metre "Amalya" from Admiral, the 60 metre "After you" from Damen Yachting's Xplorer line, Sanlorenzo's latest 57Steel, the 58.30 metre "Perla Lunar" and the 44 metre slup "Magic" from Vitters.
