Boats & Superyachts...Looking Forward to 2015 Already!

Palma Superyacht Show Looks Forward to its Third Edition

Having made its debut in 2013 the Palma Superyacht Show is now a firm fixture on the yachting calendar. Running concurrently with the 32nd Boat Show Palma, this Mediterranean season opener takes place from 30 April to 4 May 2015.

Jane Thompson, Coordinator of the Palma Superyacht Show, says, “Avoiding comparisons with Cannes or Monaco, the Palma Superyacht Show has established its own clear identity as a brokerage and charter show of excellence, perfectly timed before the summer season. Designed to coincide with 1 May, a public holiday in most European countries, as well as the UK’s Monday ‘May Day’, we hope visitors will take a long weekend break in hospitable Palma, enjoy the sunshine and see a great selection of top quality yachts.”

Providing a platform for charter and brokerage boats above 24 metres, both sail and motor, the 2015 Palma Superyacht Show is once more growing in size to cater to demand. In 2014 a total of 34 service- and equipment-related companies occupied shoreside exhibition stands, for the third edition this will rise to 50. There are also plans to up the number of superyacht berths.

“We are working hard to get more berthing space for the 2015 edition of the Palma Superyacht Show,” says Arne Ploch, Coordinator of the Show’s in-water display and Sales Broker for Camper & Nicholsons. “There were 55 attending yachts in 2014 and we are going to try and fit in ten more. With the Show now established as one of the most important brokerage and charter events before the summer, demand is high. We were sold out in 2014 and expect the same again for 2015, but this time much earlier.”

It looks like it is shaping up to be a great event already and certainly something for us to look forward to in 2015.
