A show lasting only 6 days
The 2024 edition of Les Nauticales de La Ciotat will be held from March 20 to 25, inaugurating a new format. While the Mediterranean boat show remains in spring to open the event season for enthusiasts, it is shortening its duration, now including just one weekend, instead of two, taking place from Wednesday to Monday. This brings Les Nauticales into line with the format of major in-water shows. The organizers have indicated their intention to : "a more condensed meeting with its visitors, offering an enriched, more immersive experience."
Keeping the boat show varied
Taken over by the La Provence group, now in its 3rd year, the event retains its DNA and the offering launched in recent years. Nearly 300 units are expected to be on display, both afloat and alongside the quayside, as well as a sea trial area to enable exhibiting dealers to test their new products on potential buyers, directly in the Bay of La Ciotat. From yachting and diving to water sports, seafaring professions, the environment, fishing and gastronomy, visitors should find something for everyone in the aisles. Les Nauticales is also counting on the Olympic Games sailing events in Marseille harbor from July 28 to August 8 to boost the show's dynamism in 2024.
