With about 80,000 m2 of exhibition space, close on 54,000 visitors, about 400 exhibitors and 500 boats, this is the largest on-water boat show in Europe. The “Festival de la Plaisance” is the opportunity to admire the world's finest vessels and get a sneak preview of the boat-builders' latest models. Dedicated fans, but also the simply curious, will not miss this 34th edition, which has this year introduced a new area. While the Old Port accommodates new boats and multi-hulls as usual, and Port Pierre Canto hosts secondhand models, Quai Max Laubeuf is henceforth reserved for dinghies and semi-rigid boats. Trials out at sea will be possible ! September,from 6th to 11th, Vieux Port et Port Pierre Canto, Cannes. www.salonnautiquecannes.com
