Balearic Marine Cluster organizes the Mediterranean Superyacht Forum 2026, consolidating the Balearic Islands as a strategic hub for the international yachting industry
The event will bring together industry leaders, captains, and key companies from the global superyacht ecosystem in Palma.
Palma de Mallorca will once again position itself as one of the main meeting points for the international yachting industry with the celebration of the Mediterranean Superyacht Forum 2026, taking place on April 28–29, just before the Palma International Boat Show.
Organized by the Balearic Marine Cluster, the forum reaches its third edition, consolidating its growth with a natural evolution reflected in its new name. This change responds to a clear ambition: to expand its reach and reinforce its role as a strategic space where the industry not only meets, but actively builds its future together.
Being held on the eve of PIBS strengthens its role as a key pre-event meeting point, where ideas, strategies, and priorities are aligned ahead of one of the most important nautical events in the Mediterranean.
The Mediterranean Superyacht Forum will bring together professionals from across the entire superyacht value chain — shipyards, captains, refit and maintenance companies, brokers, designers, and institutions — in an environment designed to foster active industry participation and transform collective knowledge into concrete proposals.
Unlike other industry events, the program focuses on direct attendee engagement, with Small Group Sessions (SGS) as the core of the event. These sessions, structured around three major strategic pillars — Destination, Business, and Commercial Strategy — enable participants to work in small groups on the main industry challenges, generating structured and actionable outcomes.
The program is complemented by keynote sessions that frame the industry’s key challenges, as well as think tanks that consolidate and elevate the conclusions from the working sessions, ensuring that the knowledge generated during the forum has a real impact beyond the event itself.
In addition, the forum will host the Innovation Exchange Session, a space designed to connect innovative solutions with industry companies, as well as the participation of international superyacht captains, key decision-makers in operational and strategic processes within the industry.
Hosting the Mediterranean Superyacht Forum in Palma reinforces the role of the Balearic Islands as one of Europe’s leading nautical hubs, thanks to its combination of infrastructure, specialized business ecosystem, and strategic location.
With this new edition, the Balearic Marine Cluster continues to drive initiatives that enhance sector competitiveness, foster collaboration, and position the Balearic nautical ecosystem as an international benchmark in shaping the future of yachting.
