The Palm Beach International Boat Show (PBIBS) returns to downtown West Palm Beach from Wednesday 25 March to Sunday 29 March 2026, bringing more than $1 billion worth of marine inventory to Florida's Gold Coast.
Positioned steps away from Palm Beach's famed "Billionaires Row", the event - known as "America's Favourite Boat Show" - has established itself as the premier destination where high-net-worth individuals do their yacht shopping. This year's Superyacht Show Palm Beach will feature more than 30 superyachts measuring 45 metres and above, with over 100 vessels exceeding 24 metres LOA.
“The Palm Beach International Boat Show depicts a rising demand for premium yachting experiences and establishes the region as a mecca for luxury marine enthusiasts from all over the world,” says Andrew Doole, president of U.S. Boat Shows at Informa Markets. “We’re proud to showcase the very best in boating and yachting, while delivering meaningful economic value to the Palm Beaches.”

The show's largest yacht for sale is Lürssen's 78-metre Rocinante, listed with IYC. The luxury vessel accommodates up to 12 guests across 10 staterooms and features a Jacuzzi, spa with beauty salon, massage parlour, sauna, gym and helipad.
Close behind is Feadship's 76.5-metre Boardwalk, for sale with Y.CO. With a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, Boardwalk accommodates 14 guests across seven cabins and boasts six bars, a 120-bottle wine cellar, a gym, a spa with sauna and a six-metre-long swimming pool.

Crowned Motor Yacht of the Year at the 2023 World Superyacht Awards, Kenshō features zen-focused interior spaces designed by Jouin Manku of Paris and offers a "seamless sea connection" with a 180-degree panoramic upper saloon, five-metre glass-fronted pool, full-beam owner's quarters spanning four rooms and an ocean-view gym.
Making her American debut is the brand-new 67-metre Amor À Vida by CRN, available for charter with Moran Yacht & Ship. Built in 2025, the vessel is equipped with hybrid propulsion and heat recovery systems to enhance fuel efficiency and reduce energy costs. She accommodates up to 12 guests across seven suites and features a deck Jacuzzi, beach club, barbecue and underwater lights.
Other notable vessels include Perini Navi's 56-metre Zenji, listed with Edmiston, and Sanlorenzo's 61.5-metre Alchemist, for sale with Cecil Wright and Zarpo Yachts. The brand-new Alchemist is part of the Italian shipyard's 62Steel series, characterised by a steel hull and five-deck layout. Attendees can also explore Amels' 72-metre Casino Royale - a James Bond-themed superyacht owned by globally renowned entrepreneur John Staluppi, showcasing custom interior design work.
“We’re thrilled to welcome back the Palm Beach International Boat Show to our vibrant community, which includes a crowd favourite, the Superyacht Show Palm Beach,” said Alyssa Freeman, executive director of the Marine Industries Association of Palm Beach County (MIAPBC). “The PBIBS’s impressive and diverse lineup of vessels – from superyachts to fishing boats – secures the Palm Beach region as a premier maritime destination.”
