With less than two months to go before it opens, the Yachting Festival is looking very promising. From 6 to 11 September, Europe's largest in-water show will be the first major international event of the season.

For six days, under the sun of the French Riviera, the finest gems of the seas, the latest nautical equipment, exclusive high-end services and numerous innovations will all be on display for everyone to enjoy.

"Thanks to the renewed confidence of our exhibitors, this 2022 edition is shaping up to be a very good one with projections for 550 exhibitors and 140 previews, in line with the previous year. There are more boats and we hope that close to 640 units will be exhibited. Our visitors will enjoy discovering some real gems in-water and on land, boats of all types, equipped with traditional engines or anticipating the future with the first on-board electric, hybrid or hydrogen power systems " explains Sylvie Ernoult, Director of the Yachting Festival, adding that "We are delighted to support our exhibitors in their eco-friendly development by enabling them to showcase their innovations, in particular through our "Green Route" and "Innovation Village". Little by little, the nautical industry is improving its environmental footprint and we too are following suit by developing our own eco-responsible commitments within the framework of the organisation of this exhibition (for example: less paper, better waste management, etc.)

The exhibitors are starting to reveal their new products on the Yachting Festival website:
