More than 220 exhibitors take part in the Palma International Boat Show, the sector’s first on-site fair after the pandemic.
The Balearic Vice President and Minister for Energy Transition, Productive Sectors and Democratic Memory, Juan Pedro Yllanes, presented this morning the new edition of the Palma International Boat Show, the first on-site fair of the sector to be held after the pandemic. The event, which will take place from 3rd to 6th of June at the Moll Vell exhibition centre, is organised by the Institute for Business Innovation of the Balearic Islands (IDI) and the Balearic Yacht Brokers Association (BYBA). The presentation ceremony was attended by the president of the Chamber of Commerce of Mallorca, Antoni Mercant, the president of the Port Authority, Francesc Antich, the president of the Balearic Marine Cluster, Toni Salom, the president of the Association of Marine Industries of the Balearic Islands, Jaume Vaquer, the managing director of IDI, Mariona Luis, and the director of the fair, Chema Sans.
The vice president underlined the importance of the Palma Boat Show being the first on-site event of the sector: “This Boat Show converts Majorca, and more specifically Palma, these days into the world epicentre of the yachting industry in the entire world. Yllanes added that “the fact of starting the season with the boat show proves that Majorca is a very important and well positioned hotspot for the yachting industry world wide. But it’s also a proof, that the yachting industry continues to be a strategic sector for the whole economy of the Balearic Islands. Nobody should forget, so Yllanes, that the yachting industry generates a turnover of more than 560 milion euros a year and over 5,000 direct jobs in almost 2,000 companies.
The Palma International Boat Show will have 227 direct exhibitors, spread over more than 80,000 square metres. In addition, there will be around 185 boats on exposition. The world’s leading yachting brands have chosen Palma to present their new products after montsh of Pandemic, which consolidates the Palma Boat Show as the preferred destination for recreational boating and the professional nautical industry.
One of the big innovations this year is the collaboration with the Balearic Yacht Show, the virtual fair organised by the Chamber of Commerce of Mallorca and the Balearic Marine Cluster. This event was born during the corona lockdown last year with the aim of creating a number of synergies to promote the nautical sector of the islands globally. The Balearic Yacht Show will bring together more than fifty international yachting experts in twenty conferences to discuss the future of the sector from all its aspects: industry, services, sports, leisure and also environment.
The president of the Chamber of Commerce of Mallorca, Antoni Mercant, said that „one of our committments is to promote these kinds of events. We redesigned the concept of the Balearic Yacht Show as a part of the Palma International Boat Show to help companies to improve their visibility and positioning online”.
The Palma International Boatshow offers several measures to guarantee all sanitary requirements to avoid contagion in every moment. For example, there will be controls at entrances and exits, capacity limits and constant reminders to keep a safe distance and to wear masks. The fact that the fair is held outdoors also contributes to making it safer.
