Monaco Yacht Show: Access & Travel Guide

The Monaco Yacht Show is a focused way to explore the superyacht world in its principal Mediterranean setting. Plan the harbour visit around your interests, while keeping public show access separate from onboard viewings and private hospitality.

Edition and official dates

22–25 September 2027, as announced on the official Monaco Yacht Show home page. Individual yacht appointments and private events have separate arrangements.

Tickets, invitations and hospitality

Start with the organiser’s ticket information. A show ticket is not a guarantee that you can board every displayed yacht: access can depend on the exhibitor, appointment and visitor profile. The official VIP programme and private receptions are distinct arrangements. Ask for the named programme and eligibility requirements, and do not treat an invitation enquiry as a confirmed booking.

Where to base your stay

A Monaco base offers the simplest harbour itinerary, while nearby Riviera towns create an additional daily transfer. Compare the last return journey as carefully as the morning arrival. Port Hercule is a working waterfront environment, so check the current entrance, security and boat-transfer arrangements rather than assuming every marina gate is accessible.

Build a considered itinerary

Choose a handful of priority exhibitors or appointments and keep space for the design and equipment areas. Avoid scheduling several yacht visits back to back before appointments are accepted. Allow time to walk the harbour and pause between meetings; the city’s hills and waterfront routes can affect the pace.

Before you book

Ask for the exact booked day or session, admission category, venue, seat or reservation requirements, total price and currency, delivery method, cancellation policy and transfer restrictions. Confirm whether transport, dining, drinks and the main event ticket are included or quoted separately. Book only against written inclusions, and review the organiser’s latest information before departure.

Planning with Velloy

Share your preferred edition, guest numbers, access priorities and hotel requirements with Velloy. The team can explain available planning services and proposals; an enquiry does not guarantee a ticket, invitation or reservation. Explore membership separately and confirm which rates, fees and benefits apply to your trip.
