By Sophia Spanton

The Palm Beach International Boat Show (PBIBS) returns to downtown West Palm Beach from Wednesday 25 to Sunday 29 March 2026, with tickets now available for what promises to be one of the standout yachting events of the year. Along the iconic Flagler Drive waterfront at 101 S Flagler Dr, this five-day showcase will draw serious buyers, charter clients and marine enthusiasts to explore a compelling mix of vessels and experiences.

The Palm Beach International Boat Show (PBIBS) returns to downtown West Palm Beach from 25–29 March 2026, with tickets now on sale for what is set to be one of the most significant dates in the U.S. yachting calendar. Stretching along the Flagler Drive waterfront, the five-day showcase is expected to attract serious buyers, charter clients and industry professionals, alongside a global fleet valued at over $1 billion.

The fleet stretches well beyond 70 metres, underscoring both Palm Beach’s growing stature within the global show circuit and its relevance to owners and charter clients seeking pedigree at scale.

Among the headline vessels are the 56-metre sailing yacht Zenji by Perini Navi, the 74-metre Casino Royale and the 60-metre ALFA G by Oceanco, complete with helipad, pool and open-air cinema; a line-up that speaks to the depth of the brokerage market and the enduring strength of the charter fleet.

Superyacht Show Palm Beach once again takes over Palm Harbor Marina as the show’s dedicated large-yacht enclave. Here, owners, brokers and builders convene against the backdrop of some of the most prominent vessels currently on the brokerage and charter markets, with a programme of expert-led seminars covering ownership, charter strategy and evolving technologies.

Beyond the docks, PBIBS blends lifestyle and industry with live demonstrations, the Nautical Ventures AquaZone, fishing clinics and more than 75 food and beverage options. A renewed focus on community impact is reflected in the PBIBS Gives Back initiative, which commits $1.5 million towards local marine education and environmental programmes.

'For more than 40 years, the Palm Beach International Boat Show has been a vital part of South Florida’s marine community and driving force of tourism to Palm Beach County,' commented Alyssa Freeman, executive director of the Marine Industries Association of Palm Beach County. 'We’re grateful for the role the boat show plays in supporting local businesses and bringing people together each year. The show’s grant program helps strengthen our community for the future by providing opportunities that support conservation and marine education.'

For those seeking a more private vantage point, the Windward VIP Lounge offers indoor–outdoor hospitality, open-bar service, curated dining and one-hour early access to the show. It is positioned for guests combining yacht viewings with meetings or simply looking to step above the crowd.

Tickets are available online only. The show runs 12:00–19:00 on Wednesday, 10:00–19:00 Thursday through Saturday, and 10:00–17:00 on Sunday.

PBIBS continues to balance serious tonnage with Palm Beach ease: a show where brokerage conversations unfold just steps from Worth Avenue, and where the U.S. market’s appetite for scale and spectacle remains firmly on display.
