Cannes Yachting Festival 2026 line up announcement  

Since its launch in 1977, the Cannes Yachting Festival has grown into one of Europe’s premier yachting events and the continent’s largest in-water boat show. Now in its 49th edition, the show marks the close of the Mediterranean charter season while setting the tone for the international boat show calendar. 

Taking place from 8–13 September across the Vieux Port and Port Canto in the heart of Cannes, the festival brings together more than 700 yachts up to 55 metres, from world premieres by leading shipyards to some of the market’s most sought-after brokerage and sailing yachts. 

As one of the French Riviera’s most important superyacht destinations, Cannes attracts owners, buyers, charterers and industry leaders from around the world. This year, Edmiston returns with its largest Cannes showcase to date, presenting an exceptional fleet of yachts for sale and charter, with our expert brokers on hand throughout the show to arrange private viewings and provide tailored market insight.
