Tickets are available online for the prestigious show, with varying prices for general admission, concessions, and VIP access.
The Cannes Yachting Festival is a premier event in the boating world, first launched in 1977. Held annually on the stunning French Riviera, this prestigious show has grown into one of Europe’s largest in-water exhibitions and provides an impressive display of boats and yachts for sale. This year's event, marking its 47th edition, will take place from September 10 to 15, 2024.
The Cannes Yachting Festival is spread across two main sites: Vieux Port and Port Canto. Vieux Port hosts a dazzling array of luxury motor boats for sale, while Port Canto is the hub for sailing yachts and the Brokerage & Charter area. Visitors can expect to see over 700 boats, from 5 to 50 meters, including some of the latest models and innovations from top shipyards. The show will welcome 610 exhibitors and 55,000 visitors.
There is a complementary shuttle service between the two sites.
