Monaco's 120-yacht show list has 43 new 2026 deliveries

The Monaco Yacht Show has published its first fleet list for the 23-26 September edition: 120 yachts, 43 of them delivered in 2026. With order books shrinking in unit count, this year's new metal is among the scarcest in the market.

The first list is out

The Monaco Yacht Show has confirmed an opening fleet of 120 yachts for its 35th edition at Port Hercule, running 23 to 26 September. Of those, 43 were delivered in 2026, led by Oceanco's 111m Leviathan as the largest yacht on the quays.

The show remains the year's main gathering point for the largest yachts and the people who buy them, which makes its fleet list an early read on where new supply is landing.

Scarce metal, firmer values

The global order book has contracted in unit count for a second year running, even as average length and tonnage under construction reach record highs. Build slots at the leading yards are committed through 2028 and 2029.

For an owner the arithmetic is plain. Yachts delivering now are among the scarcest commodities in the market, and scarcity at the top end tends to support resale values rather than erode them.

What to watch in September

Beyond Leviathan, the 2026 class spans from Arcadia's 24m A80 to the 102m Lurssen Nixie, with a run of new sailing yachts from Nautor Swan, Ares and Cantiere del Pardo among them.

The names that draw the crowds in Port Hercule are the same yachts brokers will point to when they price the next round of sales.
