Cannes Yachting Festival 2016 – top 5 biggest yachts

More than 150 vessels are due to be presented as World, European and French previews at the Yachting Festival. As always, this 39th edition of the Cannes Yachting Festival will be held in September (from 6 to 11 September 2016) in elegant, luxurious surroundings in the sparkling bay of Cannes.

One of the boating season’s most prestigious events, this Show is Europe’s leading in-water boating event. With over 50,000 visitors in 2015, the Cannes Yachting Festival hosted in Vieux Port and Port Pierre Canto, attracts luxury yacht and sail boat amateurs and seasoned enthusiasts alike.

Extending this already rich offer and strengthening its position, the Cannes Yachting Festival is putting on a great show for this new edition by unveiling an area previously kept private and only known to members of the select VIP Club: La Terrasse.

Situated on the roof of the Palais des Festivals, La Terrasse boasts a panoramic view across the old port and its yachts, the bay of Cannes, Croisette and the Lérins Islands.

Alongside the most prestigious yachts, La Terrasse Cannes will serve as a showcase, allowing its visitors to discover the exceptional offerings of luxury brands presenting their latest products and expertise (cars, watches, jewellery, gastronomy, tableware, private aviation, leather goods and design).

Studio Harcourt Paris will be present at the Cannes Yachting Festival to deliver a select service in the heart of La Terrasse. Visitors and exhibitors can take advantage of the remarkable opportunity to have their own «Harcourt Paris» signed portrait created. Studio Harcourt Paris will provide a make-up and photoshoot session, and produce an art print from the contact board images. A one-of-a-kind experience on the rooftop of the Palais des Festivals.
