From April 22 to 26, 2026, La Grande Motte (France) once again became the world capital of multihull boating with the celebration of the International Multihull Show, the exhibition dedicated exclusively to sailing and motor catamarans and trimarans.

Once again, the Club was present as a member of the Multihull Friendly Marinas network, reaffirming its commitment to welcoming multihulls, nautical innovation, and the promotion of a port model adapted to the needs of this type of vessel.

A leading show with international reach

The 2026 edition brought together 175 stands and 82 multihulls displayed in the water, consolidating its global character, with an increasingly notable international presence among both exhibitors and visitors. The organization highlighted a record level of international visitors, coming from 27 European countries as well as North and South America, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Australia.

Among the highlights of this edition were several international debuts reflecting the growing diversity of the sector, with vessels from Thailand, China, Tunisia, Australia, South Africa, France, Vietnam, Spain, and Portugal. Likewise, a new visitor route, a third marina open to the public, and improved access to the venue were introduced. Overall, these developments reinforced the show’s status as a leading international event. The organization has already confirmed that the next International Multihull Show will return to La Grande Motte in April 2027.

Innovation, new trends, and sustainability

The show focused on market evolution. The space dedicated to Multihull Design & Innovation brought together naval architects, startups, and equipment manufacturers, showcasing the sector’s future directions.

The strong presence of powercats, together with hybrid and electric solutions, confirms a clear trend toward more efficient vessels with greater autonomy and reduced environmental impact. This approach fully aligns with the values defended by the Club in its commitment to more environmentally responsible sailing and protection of the marine environment.

A reference marina

The Club’s presence at an event of this level highlights its capacity to accommodate multihull vessels as well as the specialized services it offers to sailors. The width of its berths, technical expertise, and privileged port environment make the Club a reference point for yacht owners and sailors seeking quality, comfort, and closeness to nature.
