The 2009 show was considered a success with organisers happy to release information that the predominant percentage of the yachts will be around 20-40m with 50m yachts in abundant attendance also. Superyachts on display will include the 36m Vanquish, 38m Sensei, 41m Blind Date and the 50m Shandor to name just a few.

There is the possibility of playing golf for charity alongside numerous contests to win a daily prize offered by Riviera Yacht Support: a long haul flight on Air France to New York or Johannesburg, or vintage wine or Champagne.

The Antibes Yacht Show 2010 will have multiple grand events to cement its reputation as a prestigious luxury yacht show. The opening ceremony will be held on the first day by the Mayor of Antibes, Juan Le Pins and a Gala Dinner in the enviable Belles Rives Hotel will be hosted for invited guests, all against the glamorous backdrop of Antibes.
