Yacht Shows & Boat Shows
Throughout the year, the finest charter yachts are exhibited at the world's leading boat shows. From Monaco, Cannes, Palma, Genoa, Greece and Croatia in the Mediterranean, to Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Palm Beach and Antigua in the Americas and Caribbean, to Phuket, Sydney and Dubai across the Asia-Pacific – sixteen shows that frame the year's charter calendar, including the trade-only shows that define the charter brokerage season.

2027 Greece · recent editions at Poros Island See the year's charter fleet – and the year's new launches – in person
The world's charter fleet changes every year – new launches, new flag-changes, refits, repositioning. The major yacht shows are where the season's charter inventory is presented in person: Monaco Yacht Show in late September shows the year's superyacht launches; the MYBA Charter Show in May previews the Med summer; FLIBS in November fronts the Caribbean winter season; Antigua Charter Show in December opens the Caribbean charter calendar from inside English Harbour.
For charterers, the shows are the single best way to walk the deck of every yacht on your shortlist before you commit. For brokers and yacht owners, the shows are where charter deals are negotiated and where flag-changes between management firms are announced. For everyone, the shows are also a calendar event in their own right – a week of dinners, parties, and tender hops between yachts in port.
Boatcrowd attends the major shows on this calendar every year. If you would like to attend a show on a charter yacht – as your base, your dinner venue, and your private viewing platform – we can place you on a yacht in the right marina for the dates, with the right crew and provisioning for the week.
