Monaco Yacht Show reveals first look at 2026 fleet

The Monaco Yacht Show has published the first official list of superyachts confirmed for its 35th edition, with 43 vessels due for delivery in 2026 among the initial lineup.

The event, which takes place in Port Hercule from 23–26 September, is expected to feature around 120 yachts by the opening day.

Toby Moore, CEO of Informa Prestige, organiser of the Monaco Yacht Show, says the concentration of newly delivered yachts, shipyards and brokerage firms offers buyers an opportunity to compare vessels in one location.

“In four days and in a single harbour, you can walk the decks of 43 yachts delivering this year…”

BOAT International’s Global Order Book 2026 reports that, although the number of yachts on order has declined for a second consecutive year, average yacht size continues to increase and build slots at leading shipyards are largely committed until 2028–2029.

According to the organisers, the largest new delivery on the current list is the 102m Nixie, built by Lürssen, while the smallest is Arcadia’s 23.98m A80.

Among the larger 2026 deliveries confirmed are Damen Yachting’s 80m Pangea and 60m QU2, Sanlorenzo’s 73.4m Silver Fox, and Isa Yachts’ 66.4m Sea Raider X.

The lineup also includes several yachts in the 40–60m segment, including Benetti’s B.Now 50M, Riva’s 54 Metri, Baglietto’s Fast50 and T60, Tankoa’s Singolare, Gulf Craft’s Majesty 145, and Sirena Marine’s Sirena Superyacht 42 Metre.

Italian builders account for much of the confirmed fleet, including Sanlorenzo, Azimut-Benetti, and brands within the Ferretti Group.

The list also includes sailing yachts, multihulls, recently refitted vessels, and brokerage yachts, with additional yachts due to be announced ahead of the September show.
