The International Multihull Show returns to La Grande-Motte from April 22–26 with its largest edition yet.
Organisers have confirmed a record fleet of around 80 multihulls. This surpasses last year’s total of 75 and reflects continued global demand for the sector. The event also reports growing international reach. Around 30% of exhibitors are based outside France.
Multihulls remain one of the fastest-growing segments in boating. Demand is driven by space, efficiency and platforms suited to electrification.
Redesigned layout improves access
A redesigned visitor route will debut in 2026. A new entrance at the harbour master’s office links the show directly to the city centre. A third marina basin has also been added. Organisers say this will improve flow and accessibility for visitors and exhibitors.
Electric shuttle buses will operate every 20 minutes during the show. The service connects the entrance with the Pasino Partouche area and nearby parking.
The shuttles will run from April 22–25 between 09:30 and 19:30, and on April 26 until 17:30.
Global platform for innovation
“The 2026 edition reflects the extraordinary momentum of the multihull market,” said Commissioner Anaïs David.
“With a record number of boats, more international exhibitors than ever, and a strong lineup of world premieres, the show continues to establish itself as the global platform where innovation, design, and new ways of boating come together,” she added.
New launches and premieres
Shipyards will use the event to unveil new models. Power catamarans are expected to feature strongly, alongside sailing multihulls. There is also a growing presence of electric, hybrid, and alternative-fuel vessels.
Confirmed world premieres include models from Simbad Yachts, Aventura Yachts, Adventure Yachts, Trimarine Composite, Grand Large Yachting, McConaghy Boats and Rapido Trimarans.
