The Monaco Yacht Show 2025 took place in Port Hercule from 24 to 27 September, bringing together the international superyacht community for its 34th edition. Widely regarded as the industry’s most influential annual gathering, the event presented a focused snapshot of market activity, innovation and evolving client demand.

Across four days, a fleet of 120 superyachts was showcased, including 50 new builds delivered in 2025 and 66 yachts under two years old. The line-up reflected a balanced mix of shipyard presentations and brokerage offerings, giving attendees direct access to both newly launched projects and established vessels available for sale and charter.

Alongside the headline fleet, the show extended its offering with 57 luxury tenders and a selection of specialist craft, including two submarines. Shoreside, the expanded Adventure Area introduced a broader lifestyle dimension, featuring a curated display of cars, motorcycles and a helicopter, reinforcing Monaco’s position at the intersection of luxury and performance.

A defining theme of the 2025 edition was the industry’s shift towards tangible environmental progress. This was underscored by the introduction of the Blue Wake Awards, recognising practical innovations in sustainability and marking a move beyond concept-driven initiatives. Throughout the show, shipyards, designers and brokers reflected this direction, with a growing emphasis on efficiency, new propulsion concepts and responsible yacht construction.

Beyond the exhibits, Monaco Yacht Show 2025 continued to act as a key forum for business and dialogue. Private appointments, onboard viewings and industry-led discussions shaped the experience, while the event’s international audience ensured strong commercial engagement across both new build and brokerage sectors.
