Palma International Boat Show 27

exhibitors from 21 different countries

Mallorca is one of the top destinations for people with an interest in nautical sports and pleasure. It shouldn't be any surprise then, that organisers of Palma's 27th International Boat Show are expecting around 55,000 visitors to this years event, and around 40% of them will be from outisde Spain.

The show takes place at Palma's 'Old Jetty' (more or less directly in front of La Lonja in the city centre) from April 24th until 2nd May. There'll be around 320 boats upto 45 m in length actually in the water and another 1000 boats and 300 exhibitors from 21 different countries on land in the area.

The show's open daily from 10.00 until 20.00 with lots of nautical activity, regattas and all sectors, from sports to business, kayaks to super yachts, represented. There will also be plenty of opportunities to splice the mainbrace when the sun goes over the yardarm in the many taverns close to the show in Palma.
