The International Multihull Show, the world's leading multihull event, keeps going from strength to strength.

For this 15th edition, the port of La Grande Motte will once again be staging an event for enthusiasts, visitors and exhibitors alike. Several previews, new boats and new versions are on the menu this year, as the world of multihulls will be showcased both afloat and ashore, covering an area of over 4,000 sq. metres.

A growing event, the 2024 edition will feature 150 exhibitors, 16% of them new and representing 13 nationalities.

Afloat, a strategic event for the industry

In numbers and highlights, the show will feature:
2 world premieres (New Windelo 54, Aventura 37 Day Charter)
2 European previews (Nautitech 48 Open, GP70)
New versions on display (such as C-Catamarans).

Since the 2022 edition, two key trends have been emerging:
The Show is moving upmarket - Fountaine Pajot, Privilège and Prestige- no less than 7 boats on display will be over 18 metres long
A stronger presence of powercats: 6 brands and 11 boats, including a new exhibitor, Aquila, with 3 boats.
A new feature for 2024 will be the creation of a trial and demo area dedicated to small boats and innovative products.

On land, a 100% multihull village and the latest trends

The Multihull Club Design & Innovation, an open space at the heart of the main hall, will once again be showcasing the big names in architecture and design within the multihull industry, as well as start-ups and equipment manufacturers, with new and promising innovations such as AGL Marine's Monawa, a veritable revolution in boat cleaning methods in marinas; or the CATCHA 320 - the French catamaran tender from Catcha Marine; DOCKMATE mooring remote controls, and the South African architecture firm Du toit Yacht Design, specialising in the design of bespoke and production yachts and catamarans.

Passion nautisme, AST- Advanced Sailing Technologies, HICA Boat, Highfield... will be complementing the selection of dinghies and tenders ashore.

L'Equipe nautique recrute will also be present at La Grande Motte: the FIN, with the support of OPCO2i, will be introducing yachting jobs and training for young people and adults looking to reconvert their careers.
