Four months until Cannes Yachting Festival

With only four months until the opening of the 2015 Cannes Yachting Festival, more than 140 boats have been announced for their world, European and French premieres. 85 of those will be taking part in their world premiere, with 33 taking part in their French Premiere and 23 their European.

According to the festival, these previews will offer amateurs from around the world a wide variety in terms of length, design, multihull vs. monohull and motor vs. sail.

60 of the new models will be presented by Italian shipyards, with 17 American and 15 French boats joining them. To date over 400 boats have been registered and the Cannes Yachting Festival website now has full details of all boats which will be present in the Old Port at this year’s festival.

This year, the festival will welcome a wide selection of RIBs and inflatable boats, which will be located within a devoted space on land and in water, called the QML (Quai Max Laubeuf) or the “RIB village”.

Cannes Yachting Festival has also announced a new partnership with Wijet, which is offering an exclusive 10% discount on all flights to the Cannes Yachting Festival.

The show is set to take place from the 8th to the 13th September 2015. The latest updates to Cannes Yachting Festival can be followed live on their social medias, and organisers have just announced that they have set up a new LinkedIn page.
