The Palma International Boat Show sets up at Marina Moll Vell, directly beneath Palma's cathedral, and at the nearby Marina Port de Mallorca, positioning itself explicitly as the event that opens the Mediterranean's summer yachting season each year. The organizer's own figures describe roughly 300 yachts and close to 300 exhibiting brands, organized into three distinct zones: a Superyacht Village for boats of 24 meters and above, a Superyacht New Build Hub introduced in 2025 for new construction between 35 and 80 meters, spanning some 5,000 square meters with 21 premium berths, and a Shipyards & Equipment section covering smaller yachts and the wider marine-technology trade.
The organizer has built a sustainability strand into recent editions, reporting official certification for offsetting ten tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions from the 2025 show, and positions the event around Palma's broader identity as a refit, repair and brokerage hub for the Mediterranean rather than only as a sales venue.
01Por qué es relevante
Palma's own marine-services industry — the yards, riggers and brokers around the harbor — has grown large enough that this show functions as much as an annual statement of that industry's scale as a sales event, timed deliberately to mark the season's opening rather than compete with Cannes or Monaco at its close. The new Superyacht New Build Hub, launched in 2025, signals an ambition to move the show further up the value chain, from displaying finished boats to presenting yachts still under construction.
02La semana en torno al evento
Late April in Palma marks the real start of the island's season after a quiet winter, with Moll Vell and the Paseo Marítimo filling with the show's fleet and visitors while the rest of Palma's old town continues its ordinary spring tourist pace. The show's timing just ahead of the Mediterranean's main charter and cruising season means many of the yachts on display will shortly depart for a summer of work rather than staying in Mallorca.
03Cuándo llegar
The middle two days give the steadiest access to the fleet and the Superyacht New Build Hub before any weekend crowds build; the show's four-day span is short enough that a single well-planned day can cover the main sections.
04Dónde alojarse
Palma's old town, within walking distance of Moll Vell, is the natural base; the Paseo Marítimo and the areas nearer Marina Port de Mallorca are a short walk or taxi ride further along the waterfront.
05Acceso y hospitalidad
The organizer sells day tickets online for general access to the show; boarding a specific yacht for sale requires an appointment through its exhibiting broker or yard rather than the general ticket. Prices are set on the organizer's own ticketing platform and are not quoted here.
06Dónde tiene lugar la actividad social
The Moll Vell waterfront beneath the cathedral is the show's public spine and one of Palma's most photographed settings regardless of the event; the old town's restaurants and bars, a short walk inland, take the evening trade from visitors and exhibitors alike.

08Aspectos prácticos
09Historia
A precise founding date for this show was not established from the sources read for this record. Palma's development as a Mediterranean superyacht hub over recent decades, driven by its refit and repair yards and its central position on Mediterranean cruising routes, provides the backdrop against which this show has grown; an editor should confirm an exact founding year from the organizer directly.
10Quién está ahí
Yacht buyers and brokers across the superyacht and production-boat markets; shipyard and new-build sales teams, particularly for the Superyacht New Build Hub; Palma's own refit and service trade; and Mallorca's spring visitor population.
