Monaco Yacht Show and Cannes Yachting Festival: port and yacht access

In short: in September 2027, the Cannes Yachting Festival (7 to 12 September, Vieux-Port and Port Canto) comes before the Monaco Yacht Show (22 to 25 September, Port Hercule). Access to the quays is controlled: a chauffeur drops you at the closest authorised point. Cannes and Monaco are about 55 minutes apart, from €220 in an E-Class.

Two shows, three harbours

Brokers, owners and buyers move between visits on board, meetings and shipyard parties. Vehicles and hotels on the Riviera are in high demand in September: book as soon as your dates are set. A chauffeur who knows each access point and drop-off spot saves valuable time between appointments.

In Cannes: between the Vieux-Port and Port Canto

The Yachting Festival is spread across two harbours at either end of the Croisette: the Vieux-Port, below Le Suquet, and Port Canto. To move between them during visits, the simple option is an hourly service: the chauffeur handles these shuttles, waits during visits and brings you back after parties on board.

In Monaco: Port Hercule

The Monaco Yacht Show sets up in Port Hercule, in the heart of the Principality, where traffic plans change during the show. The chauffeur follows routes adapted to road closures and drops you at the closest authorised point. The Fontvieille heliport is about 10 minutes from Casino Square: your chauffeur can meet you there on landing.

Reference rates
