Following last year's successful Olympic Yacht Show, this year's rendezvous of the protagonists of yachting is again the Greek epicentre of attention and for good reason: it's even bigger and even more diverse.
The second edition is to be held from October 7 to 10 at the renovated facilities of Olympic Marine in Lavrio. Just like last year, the show will spread both across the floating pontoons and on land, giving visitors the opportunity to admire the new yachts in their "habitat" and browse over the best that the actual Greek market has to offer.
Organized by ONDECK EVENTS, this truly diverse event has already attracted the attention of some of the largest yachting companies in Greece, while leading executives of international companies and shipyards have already confirmed their participation as guests, adding to the event's "global allure".
The number of yachts participations is growing exponentially and at an impressive pace, at today over 100 between boats and yachts present, important world premieres will take place, since various participating companies have thought it fitting to debut their new models in a country inextricably linked to the sea. We'll share soon a specific press release with full details.
At this year's Olympic Yacht Show 2022, Greek shipyards including Olympic Yach?S, Skipper-BSK, Technohull, Rafnar Hellas, Rock Marine, Seafighter, Olympic Ribs and Onda Tenders will hold centre stage. The organizers have put special emphasis on the creations of the Greek shipyards' platform aiming towards their international promotion.
"The Olympic Yacht Show aims to become a crucial communication platform of the Greek shipbuilding industry. Greek yachts must have their own local show,...at home and become a pole of attraction for foreign buyers and one of the main reasons for visiting the show" stressed Gerasimos Gerolimatos, head of the Organizing Committee.
In the meantime, the land part of the show will be equally noteworthy. Leading companies from all over the world, which stand out for their exquisite services in the areas of equipment, technology and yacht support, have already confirmed that they are joining this top meeting.
The goal of the Olympic Yacht Show is to reach the status of an institution in the world of Greek nautical events, to offer fertile ground for business discussions to yachting professionals and owners alike and become the link which will connect us with the rest of the world and claim a place on the world map with the biggest events of premium yachting and the industry that surrounds them.
The 2nd Olympic Yacht Show organized by ONDECK EVENTS at the modern facilities of Olympic Marine in Lavrio is to take place from October 7-10 under the auspices of the Ministry of Shipping and Island Policy, the Ministry of Development & Investments, the Ministry of Tourism, GNTO, the Prefecture of Attica, the Hellenic Chamber of Shipping, the Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Greek Marinas Association, the Piraeus Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Municipality of Lavreotiki.
