The Worldwide Yachting Association has announced the MYBA Charter Show is to move back to Genoa, Italy for its 34th Edition next year.
The show, which has been hosted in Barcelona for the last 5 years, will temporarily return to its original location at the historic Marina Molo Vecchio in Genoa for 2024. Under a temporary one-year agreement, the Italian port will serve as an interim solution until a decision can be reached with regard to the show’s future location.
Annually attracting more than 2,000 industry professionals, brokers and influencers, the MYBA Charter Show is a mainstay fixture in the yachting calendar, offering a prime opportunity to get an up-close encounter with some of the most iconic luxury charter yachts on the market.
Organized by MYBA, the show is a shining example of the association’s dedication to setting, promoting and upholding high standards across all realms of the superyacht industry.
Ignacio Erroz, CEO of Marina Port Vell Barcelona, confirmed that it had “been a pleasure to host the MYBA Charter Show, for five editions, in our facilities,” before adding the show had also helped to reinforce Barcelona as a superyacht destination, as well as boost the local economy and create greater opportunities for the industry as a whole.
Meanwhile, Raphael Sauleau, MYBA vice president and AYSAS chairman, expressed their “heartfelt gratitude to the team at Marina Port Vell Barcelona for their dedication and efforts in hosting the MYBA Charter Show over the past years. Under Ignacio Erroz's leadership, the team's passion, professionalism, and commitment to excellence, have made the Shows unique experiences irrespective of the post pandemic challenges.”
The two marinas are working closely with each other to ensure a smooth transition for all parties involved.
Dates for the MYBA Charter Show 2024 have yet to be announced. If you're interested in learning more about yachts in Barcelona or want to attend the event, speak to your preferred yacht charter broker today for more details.
