In two weeks, the Vieux Port and Port Canto will host the 2022 edition of the Cannes Yachting Festival. This year, professionals and enthusiasts can discover almost 650 boats recently released by the most prestigious French and international shipyards.

The gates to the Festival will open for six days on Tuesday 6 September. The most beautiful jewels of the seas, the latest nautical equipment, and the highest-end services will be displayed for everyone to enjoy.

"With two weeks to go until the Festival opens, we can't wait to see our visitors and exhibitors. The Festival build started on 8 August. Everything is going well, the pontoons and tents are being set up to accommodate the boats and stands. There's another intense two weeks left for the teams with a lot still left to do. I would like to thank our partners, the city of Cannes, the Palais des Festivals, IGY Marina and our suppliers, Locaponton and Brelet/Gl Events who are working with us to put together a wonderful new edition", says Sylvie Ernoult, Festival Director.
