The Mediterranean yachting season begins in Palma

The Palma International Boat Show returns in spring 2026, transforming Moll Vell harbour into one of the most important nautical meeting points in the Mediterranean. Marking the official start of the sailing season, the show attracts industry professionals, yacht owners, investors and sea lovers from around the world.

With hundreds of vessels on display and an extensive programme of exhibitions and events, the show continues to grow in both size and international relevance.

 

A growing international event

Previous editions have demonstrated the strength and global appeal of the Balearic nautical sector. The show has consistently welcomed hundreds of exhibiting companies and tens of thousands of visitors, reinforcing Palma’s position as a leading superyacht hub.

For 2026, visitors can expect:

  • Around 600 boats on display

  • Over 100 superyachts measuring 24 metres or more

  • A dynamic mix of brokerage yachts, new builds, marine services and technical innovation

Set against the stunning backdrop of La Seu, the event offers panoramic views of the cathedral, the city skyline and the impressive fleet moored along the harbour.

 

Discover the Palma superyacht village

A highlight of the event is the Palma Superyacht Village — formerly known as the Palma Superyacht Show. This exclusive area showcases a curated selection of some of the finest 24+ metre superyachts currently available for sale and charter on the international brokerage market.

The Superyacht Village is a vibrant hub for yacht enthusiasts and professionals, offering:

  • Premium brokerage yachts

  • Shipyard exhibitions

  • Live service demonstrations

  • Networking opportunities within the global superyacht community

Alongside the yachts themselves, visitors can explore onshore exhibitors presenting innovations in sail design, marine electronics, watersports equipment and luxury yacht accessories.

 

The refit & repair area

Mallorca is internationally recognised not only for yacht charter but also for its high-quality refit and repair services.

The dedicated Refit & Repair Area at the show highlights the island’s technical excellence and connects visitors with leading companies specialising in:

  • Full-scale yacht refits

  • Interior upgrades and redesign

  • Advanced maintenance solutions

  • Performance optimisation

Whether planning a complete transformation or fine-tuning a vessel for the season ahead, this area provides invaluable insight into the latest industry developments.

 

The superyacht new build hub

An exciting feature of the 2026 edition is the Superyacht New Build Hub, located at Club de Mar.

This impressive 5,000 square metre exhibition space focuses on the future of yacht construction and is dedicated to vessels between 40 and 100 metres in length.

Here, visitors will find specialists in:

  • Naval architecture and engineering

  • Maintenance and repair industries

  • Interior design studios

  • Advanced construction technologies

It is a key destination for owners, investors and professionals considering custom builds or next-generation superyacht projects.

 

Shore-side exhibitions & industry events

Beyond the marina, the show features a lively schedule of seminars, training sessions and industry gatherings. The floating bridge connecting different exhibition areas allows visitors to explore the harbour while enjoying panoramic city views.

The event continues to strengthen Mallorca’s reputation as a centre of maritime innovation, craftsmanship and luxury lifestyle.
