Monaco Yacht Show
The 18th Monaco Yacht Show will be hosted between the 24th – 27th September. To date CNI have confirmed that they will have seven yachts on display, including the newly launched 60m (196’) Xanadu, the 49.9m (164’) Dakota from Codecasa, the 50m (164’) TJ Esperanza from Amels, the 39.6m (130’) Lionshare from Heesen, the 45.7m (150’) Perfect Persuasion from Oceanfast, and the 41.5m (136.4’) sailing yacht Ranger from Danish Yachts.

CNI will be hosting guests on the Miramar Hotel terrace throughout the day, turning it into a private hospitality venue overlooking the harbour. The social scene at the show sees CNI hosting events on every evening of the show. For the fourth consecutive year, CNI, in partnership with the Monaco Yacht Show, has made the show CarbonNeutral. The organizers are measuring the source and levels of greenhouse gases produced from the travel, electricity and waste of the exhibiting companies – as well as the electricity and waste of the yachts and stands – and are offsetting them with dedicated programmes to raise awareness among participants and visitors to the show. In the process, they hope to encourage others to reduce their own emissions wherever possible.
