About Cannes Yachting Festival

Europe’s leading in-water show and the first major date of the autumn season, with hundreds of motor yachts afloat across two harbours.

Highlights

  • ~700 boats across two ports
  • World & European premieres
  • Sailing yachts at Port Canto

By GetBoat.com · Updated · Methodology and limitations

As of 11 August 2026, seven of the ten builders we tracked had at least one official Cannes-linked model announcement, while only four had published a full show line-up. Below we separate explicit world debuts from models merely marked “new”, from project presentations, and from names that appear only in early coverage — then add GetBoat’s 10 August snapshot: how often each brand is listed for charter, at what day rate, and how asking prices differ by yacht age.

The show runs 8–13 September 2026 across the Vieux Port and Port Canto. Every entry below was checked against the builder’s own site or official event page on 11–12 August 2026.

Cannes Yachting Festival 2026: confirmed premieres and official line-ups

BuilderModelStatusStated by the builder
PearlPearl 73World premiereAnnounced on Pearl Yachts’ own site; shown with the Pearl 63 and Pearl 82.
SirenaSirena 118World debut36 m, the largest Sirena built; naval architecture by Germán Frers; twin MAN V-12s, ~16 knots, under 300 GT.
LagoonLagoon 47World debut“The Lagoon 47 will make its world debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September 2026.” 14.95 m hull, 7.96 m beam; VPLP Design with Nauta Design.
DufourDufour 39World premiereDebut at Port Canto; design by Umberto Felci with Luca Ardizio; two- or three-cabin layouts and a Performance version. Full range from the 37 to the 54 on show.
Riva (Ferretti Group)96′ Argo SuperOfficial debutFirst hull launched at La Spezia in July; 28.8 m, design by Officina Italiana Design.
AzimutFly 82New on official line-upListed as new among the 13 Azimut models published for the show.
AzimutGrande 44M (43.6 m)Project presentationAzimut’s line-up marks it a project rather than an in-water premiere — a distinction often glossed over in early coverage.
BeneteauOceanis 47, Oceanis 52, First 36 SE, First 60, Gran Turismo 50New on official line-upFive models carry a “new” badge on Beneteau’s official event page.

Lagoon 47: what is confirmed, and what is only reported

The world debut is confirmed by Lagoon itself, along with the hull dimensions and the design partners. A launch base price of €680,000 net has been widely reported, but Lagoon does not publish a price on its official pages — the site offers a price list on request. Treat the figure as trade-press reporting, not a builder statement, and expect the usual caveats about specification and commissioning.

Sirena 118 at Cannes 2026: confirmed world debut

Sirena lists the show on its own event page and launched the hull ahead of it. At 36 m she is the largest yacht the yard has built: GRP fast-displacement, under 300 gross tons, up to six guest staterooms, twin MAN V-12s of 3,100 hp each for a reported 16 knots.

Reported for Cannes 2026, but not confirmed by the builder

  • Pershing GTX90 — a genuine new model (first hull launched 1 July, 28 m), but the press release ties it to no show.
  • Fountaine Pajot FP48 / FP55 / FPY 70S — the yard lists Cannes without a line-up; only the FP48 is confirmed as a new model, and the FP55 and FPY 70S do not appear on its site.
  • Beneteau Swift Trawler 43 — absent from Beneteau’s official line-up, which lists the Swift Trawler 37 Fly.
  • Jeanneau — the show is in the brand’s calendar; no models published.

What GetBoat listings show about these brands

A show reveals the boat; a marketplace records what happens to it afterwards. Two things we can measure across our live listings, snapshot 10 August 2026: how often a brand appears with a charter rate attached, and what owners are asking for it by age. These are listing figures, not bookings, revenue or valuations.

How often are these brands listed for charter?

The gradient is the finding. Cruising catamarans and volume sailboats appear with a charter rate in roughly nine cases out of ten — that inventory is overwhelmingly presented to the rental market. The large motor and displacement yachts appear less often: three-quarters for Azimut, under two-thirds for Riva, under half for Sirena. Their listed day rates sit four to ten times higher, which is the crewed bracket rather than the weekly-rental one. What this does not tell us is occupancy, revenue or why an owner bought the boat — a listing records availability, not use.

BrandListings in sampleShare listed for charterMedian listed day rate

How asking prices differ by yacht age

Grouping listed sale prices by year of build gives a cross-section of what is on the market today, not the history of any one hull. Different models sit in different bands, so read the shape, not the step.

In the premium motor sample the bands step down steadily: boats built 8–12 years ago are listed at roughly half the median of the newest band, and 13–20 year-old boats at about a fifth. In the volume-sail samples the older bands hold closer together at first and separate sharply beyond thirteen years — a Beneteau in the 13–20 band is listed near a quarter of the newest band, and past twenty-one near a tenth. One cell runs against the trend: Beneteau’s 8–12 band sits above its 4–7 band on only 19 priced boats, which is a mix of models, not a market signal.

The cleanest measure we have is within a single model, where the boats are comparable. Among Azimut Atlantis 45 listings, each additional model year is associated with an asking price about 10% higher (|r| = 0.76 between log price and build year); for the Grande 27M the figure is about 5% (|r| = 0.68). Read in reverse, that is the age-related difference in what sellers ask — and it is gentler than the brand-level bands imply, because those bands also change which models they contain.

Methodology and limitations

Premieres. Verified against builder websites and official event pages on 11–12 August 2026. Where a builder had published no Cannes line-up, trade-press claims were not treated as confirmed; where a builder marks a model “new” or “project” rather than a premiere, we use the builder’s word.

Marketplace figures. Medians across GetBoat’s live listings, snapshot 10 August 2026, most recent price per boat, our own listings only. We analysed only listings originally priced in euros — no exchange rates were applied, so nothing here mixes currencies. “Share listed for charter” is the proportion of a brand’s listings carrying a charter rate; day rates are medians of listed, not booked, prices. “Listings in sample” counts every spelling of a brand in our data (our brand records are fragmented — “Lagoon”, “Lagoon Catamarans” and “Lagoon-Bénéteau” exist separately), so it is deliberately broader than a catalogue filter on one spelling and will not match a brand page’s counter.

We do not report average length or price per foot (our length field mixes feet and metres and cannot be cleanly split), discount depth (not populated), or price movement over time (six weeks of history including a one-off catalogue reprice). Age bands mix models within a brand; samples under ten priced boats are marked and are order-of-magnitude only.
