The Monaco Yacht Show is unlike anything else on Earth, and it’s coming up fast.
The 2026 Monaco Yacht Show is right around the corner. The world’s undisputed premier destination for seeing the latest and greatest in the 50-meter-plus segment of the yachting market runs this year from September 23rd to 26th. Each day promises to be jam-packed with exciting new launches from the world’s biggest and best megayacht builders. This year the star-studded event will host exciting new launches from Oceanco, Sanlorenzo, Benetti, Baglietto, Riva, and more. Let’s have a deeper look at some of the most glamorous jewel boxes floating dockside this year.
Oceanco Leviathan Makes a Massive Impression

In the Bible, the Leviathan is the name of a massive creature of the deep. It’s a fitting name then for Leviathan the yacht, which is the largest launch by gross tonnage ever built by venerated Dutch yard Oceanco. At 364 feet and 4,999 gross tons, Leviathan is a proper beast. She will easily be one of the stars of the show, with all eyes on this steel-hulled, full custom design that promises to showcase the very best of Dutch boatbuilding. The yacht will be of particular interest to IYG’s Vittoria Santarone, as she saw it being built when she visited Oceanco in 2025. We look forward to hearing her full report.
Lürssen Nixie Brings Style and Scale to Monaco

One of the most intriguing yachts of 2026 is Nixie, the 102-meter Lürssen that changed hands a few times during her build process. The RWD design is unusually sleek by Lürssen standards and has gained quite a few admirers already in her young life. The yacht has a massive beach club and a 20-foot-wide pool that partially juts out over the stern. She also has a commercial-grade helicopter pad that can convert into a sports court when not in use.
Sanlorenzo Silver Fox Introduces the New 74Steel

The first in Sanlorenzo’s 74Steel line, Silver Fox will surely be one of the most sought-after yachts to visit in Monaco. Exteriors are done by Zuccon International Project, while interiors are a collaboration between Francesco Paszkowski and Margherita Casparini. This wellness-focused yacht has a gym, sauna, massage room, and cold plunge. A glass-bottom pool and a private owner’s deck are sure to be extremely popular features as well. If all of these elements sound like they’d make for an epic charter yacht to you, you’d be correct in that assumption. She’s available to charter for €900,000 per week.
Benetti Brings 67 Meters of Italian Design to Monaco

This 67-meter Benetti comes with a high level of design pedigree. Her exteriors were done by RWD and her interiors by Sinot. She can sleep 16 guests as well as 10 crew, including a captain. At 15 knots, she can cruise for 5,000 nautical miles without refueling, making her truly transoceanic. With engines at full go, she can eke out another knot for a 16-knot top end if she needs to get to her next port in a hurry.
Baglietto T60 Takes Its Place as the New Flagship

Baglietto‘s new flagship is the T60. Her massive beach club, with a glass pool on centerline partially shaded by an overhang, will be a major talking point for anyone who steps aboard. She is also said to have a massive master stateroom formulated around seclusion and privacy. Her Francesco Paszkowski lines deftly mix classic and modern design to create something that will turn heads everywhere this yacht goes.
Riva 54 Metri Takes the Storied Builder to New Heights

The 54 Metri is yet another flagship—this one from one of Italy’s most storied yards, Riva. The full-aluminum vessel is rather speedy for her size, with a top end of 18 knots. She also uses glass generously, which helps to break up her lines and offer her a decidedly modern and elegant flair. This highly customizable yacht is taking Riva to new heights and will be well worth a look if you’re in town for the show.
If you are planning on making the trip, please give your IYG representative a call, text, or email and let us know you’ll be there. We’d love nothing more than to show you around the docks at a boat show that is truly unlike anything else on Earth.
