The 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival is fast approaching and if you're in the market to purchase a new yacht from a European shipyard, this is the boat show you can't miss. Located right on the French Riviera, the show in Cannes is primarily thought of as the best opportunity to see the newest models from the world's leading manufacturers based in Italy, France, and more.
Beginning September 9th and running through the 14th, there will be more than 700 boats and yachts on display with more than 600 exhibitors. Considered Europe's top in-water boat show, yacht manufacturers like Princess, Absolute, Prestige, and Pardo will bring nearly their entire model range to this event, including several exciting world premieres.
If you are interested in learning more about this season's newest models making their debut or are traveling to Cannes for the show, please contact us at (718) 984-7676 or email us at Sales@SIYachts.com.
ABSOLUTE YACHTS
SI Yachts has quickly become one of the largest Absolute Yachts dealers in the world, as the layout, versatility, and luxurious comfort of each model is perfect for owners who wish to cruise north-to-south depending on the season.
World Premiere: Absolute 70 Fly
The all-new Absolute 70 Fly will make its world debut at the upcoming 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival. The 70 Fly represents an evolution of Absolute's latest design trends and technology. Meant to be your "home away from home", owners will love the voluminous spaces of the full-beam master cabin and the expansive salon. Whether anchored in the Bahamas or summer cruising near Newport, the 70 Fly is ideal for those who demand style, space, and sea-going confidence.
World Premiere: Absolute Navetta 62
From the award-winning Navetta model range comes the all new Absolute Navetta 62, another world premiere for the Italian shipyard at the Cannes Yachting Festival. One of its key benefits is the generous volume throughout—made possible by Absolute’s unique semi-planing hull design—which provides the feel of a much larger yacht. The main deck features a spacious salon with 360-degree views, a forward galley with easy crew access, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the aft cockpit and bow lounge.

PRINCESS YACHTS
The Princess name has become synonymous with yachting royalty, creating masterpieces on the water in nearly sell size categories between 45-and-95 feet. Step aboard any yacht in one of their 5 model ranges and it becomes quickly apparent that quality is an important attribute for the shipyard. Whether selecting a flybridge cruising yacht or an express style vessel, Princess boasts exceptional practicality, style, and social-oriented design.
World Premiere: Princess Yachts V-65
The exhilaration is palpable from the helm of the speedy new Princess V-65. The twin MAN V12-1400mhp engines complement the Olenski-designed deep-v hull for top speeds just under 40 knots with precision handling and maneuverability. Retract the sunroof and open up the triple aft doors in the salon to really become one with the ocean environment around you, all from the comfort of our private yacht.

PRESTIGE YACHTS
The team at Prestige Yachts won't have to go far from their homebase to the Cannes Yachting Festival as the shipyard is also located in France. While Prestige has ventured into the luxury power catamaran market in recent years and will debut a new model at this year's show, the shipyard's flybridge range is still an exciting focal point for the brand. Prestige has always been the perfect blend of quality, value, and comfort to deliver that remarkable time on the water you desire.
World Premiere: Prestige M7 Power Catamaran
The new Prestige M7 is an outstanding evolution in the multihull motor yacht category, offering a wealth of benefits that elevate both onsite comfort and cruising efficiency. First and foremost, its twin-hull design creates a sprawling 656 square feet of living space—approximately 20% more than a monohull of similar length—providing abundant room both inside and out for entertaining, relaxing, and connecting with the sea. The slender hulls also deliver extraordinary stability and efficiency: the M7 uses around half the fuel of an equivalent monohull and can be equipped with a Long-Range pack or Silent Mode for extended, eco-conscious cruising.

PARDO YACHTS
Since its debut in 2016, Pardo Yachts has experienced remarkable popularity and rapid growth. Born under the esteemed Cantiere del Pardo shipyard—an Italian builder with over 50 years of experience—the brand quickly distinguished itself by seamlessly blending sleek, minimalist design with powerful performance. Within just a few years, Pardo made its mark in the walkaround powerboat market.
While there are no world premieres at this year's Cannes Yachting Festival for Pardo, the exciting GT75 will be in the line-up.
