Published: 29 Apr 2026
The Palma International Boat Show (PIBS) of 2026 promises a mesmerising display of the largest and most innovative superyachts.

The grand showcase of marine royalty, the Palma International Boat Show of 2026, beckons yacht enthusiasts and industry insiders from around the world. The event, spanning from 29th April to 2nd May, flaunts an exquisite display of fine naval craftsmanship and innovation, headlined by some of the year’s biggest and most striking superyachts. Leading the roster is Ares Yachts’ latest pearl, Simena. This 62m spectacle is a salute to the age of sail, inspired by the classic silhouette of the clipper ships. Just off her maiden voyage from the Turkish shipyard, Simena graces the show with her resplendent interiors designed by Design Unlimited. This elegant marvel is the epitome of a luxuriant seafaring experience. Joining the ranks is Ohana, a 49.7m high-performer from the stables of Fitzroy Yachts. Designed by Dubois, this New Zealand-built superyacht flaunts competitive hull lines and a functional layout, marked by luxuries like a secluded master cabin and an onboard cinema. However, the 47m Andromeda La Dea is the comeback story that’s got everyone buzzing. After a comprehensive three-year makeover, this Perini Navi beauty stuns with modern interiors by Guillaume Rolland of Liaigre. Her nomination for a Neptune at the 2026 World Superyacht Awards adds to her appeal. Finally, the 45.3m R.R from Overmarine Group is an Italian masterpiece that merges athletic performance with lavish comfort. Leveraging the successful Mangusta GranSport 45 series, this motor yacht showcases advanced naval architecture by Pierluigi Ausonio PLANA and design work by Alberto Mancini. A gleaming example of the strategic collaboration, R.R boasts top speeds of 26 knots and extravagant features like a 75-square-metre beach club and foredeck infinity pool.
