The Cannes Yachting Festival confirms its position as Europe’s largest in-water boat show. From the Old Port to Port Pierre Canto, from one end to the other of the famous Croisette, the best motor and sailing vessels, multi-hulls, second-hand boats in the 22-65 metre range and a dazzling array of tenders and dayboats are on display. Some shipyards also offer trips out to sea so that new buyers can try out the finest yachts in the world.
The Venues
The Vieux Port is one of the oldest harbours on the
French Riviera, situated next to the Palais des Festivals and a short distance from the old town and its quaint back streets. Many of the worlds largest shipyards exhibit in this area.
Port Canto is located at the top end of the famous Croisette and is devoted to large second-hand yachts. There is also a new area dedicated to “toys”, a rapidly growing sector providing essential equipment to yachts and guaranteed fun and thrills for guests.
The show provides free shuttles that connect the two ports every 15 minutes.
