Visitors to this year’s Monaco Yacht Show will once again find large sailing yachts amongst the more than 120 superyachts on display. BOOTE EXCLUSIV will, of course, also be represented with a stand at this leading industry event for shipyards, brokers and interested visitors.

​This year, the show is also making headlines with an anniversary that seems almost incidental given the sheer abundance of exhibits: the Monaco Yacht Show is celebrating its 35th birthday. Congratulations! From 23 to 26 September 2026, around 120 superyachts are expected to moor in the Principality once again, including 42 new models – and, of course, a number of sailing yachts.

​“What this boat show has to offer cannot be found anywhere else in the world,” says BOOTE EXCLUSIV editor-in-chief Martin Hager enthusiastically. Large sailing yachts are once again moored in the spectacular Port Hercule. Here, the organisers are expecting a great deal of interest in the 62-metre—“Simena” by Ares Yachts, the Swan 128 “Raijin” or the 44-metre-long “Magic” by Vitters.

Anyone wishing to take a look around the Mega events and enjoy a varied programme of receptions and award ceremonies should book a ticket in advance. This now costs 770 euros for one day – a further 45 euros more than in 2025.

​Opening hours of the Monaco Yacht Show

Open from 24 to 26 September 2026, Thursday and Friday 10 am–6.30 pm, Saturday 10 am–6 pm. From 8.30 am each day, and on Wednesday 23 September, access to the Dock Area is restricted to exhibitors and those with a personal VIP invitation from MYS or an exhibitor. The organisers can also arrange hotel accommodation: monacoyachtshow.com

Uske was born just outside Volkswagen in 1970 and tested various small boats with sails through her boyfriend (now husband 😊) on a quarry pond. Her studies in Kiel took her to the Baltic Sea with boats of all kinds and eventually to a regatta from Hong Kong to Mauritius via the Academic Sailing Club. Her teacher training ended at the Burda School of Journalism in Munich instead of in the classroom and finally at Boote Exclusiv. After a long break and various stories about house building, she returned to Delius Klasing and has been filling the magazine with long stories about large ships ever since. A family-owned H-boat was quickly sold again as the mother realized that sailing with two small children was neither relaxing nor fun.
