Monaco Yacht Show Yacht Charter
Charter a private yacht for Monaco Yacht Show week — as accommodation, a setting for client entertainment and meetings, or the start of a French Riviera charter.
Independent adviser. Not the organiser of, or an official partner of, the Monaco Yacht Show. Show access, berths and availability are never implied until confirmed.
Your purpose
What will the yacht be for?
Client entertainment
A private yacht as a setting for lunches, dinners and receptions away from the quays.
Private meetings
A quiet, confidential space for owners, buyers, shipyards and advisers between show visits.
Pre/post-show charter
Extend the week into Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Antibes or the Italian Riviera before or after the show.
Three different yachts
Show yachts, sale yachts and your charter yacht
Yachts exhibited at the show
Displayed by shipyards, brokers and owners under the show's own arrangements. They are not normally available as your accommodation.
Yachts for sale
Viewings of exhibited or off-show sale yachts are arranged separately through the acquisition side of LUND GROUP.

Request Show-Week Yacht OptionsShow access
A yacht charter is not show access
Entry to the Monaco Yacht Show is issued by the organiser. Chartering a yacht does not include show passes, exhibitor status or access to exhibited yachts.
We can advise on how access works, but we never present passes, invitations or the invitation-only day as included unless they have been confirmed in writing.
Port Hercule
Port Hercule during the show
During the show most of Port Hercule is given over to exhibited yachts under the organiser's berthing plan. A charter berth inside the harbour is rare and is never described as secured until contracted.
A show berth (for an exhibited yacht) and a charter berth (for a yacht used by guests) are different arrangements with different rules.
Nearby positioning
Where a show-week charter yacht usually sits
Realistic options include Cap d'Ail, Fontvieille, a Monaco anchorage with tender transfers, or a Riviera berth such as Beaulieu, Villefranche or Menton, each with different transfer times and privacy.
Buying as well?
Yacht viewings during the show
Many charter guests are also buyers. We keep charter and acquisition separate: the yacht you stay on is a charter, while viewings of sale yachts are arranged by our acquisition team with the relevant listing brokers.
Corporate hospitality
Hosting during show week
Shipyards, brokerages, financiers and family offices use a private yacht to host guests. We plan guest lists, day-guest limits, catering and transfers; day-guest capacity is set by certification and we quote verified figures only.
Accommodation aboard
Sleeping aboard in Monaco
A yacht can replace a hotel for the week. Most charter yachts accommodate up to about twelve overnight guests; the exact figure depends on the yacht.
Cost
Show-week cost and APA
A yacht's normal weekly rate is not the show-week total. Event terms, minimum periods, berth or anchorage costs, VAT, fuel, provisioning, port fees and the advance provisioning allowance (APA) are confirmed separately.
APA is a deposit, commonly a percentage of the charter fee, used for fuel, food, drink and berthing and reconciled at the end of the charter.
Before and after
Pre- and post-show cruising
Late September is a calm, warm time on the Riviera. A few days before or after the show can include Saint-Tropez, the Lérins Islands, Cap Ferrat or Portofino.
Arrival
Private aviation and helicopters
Most guests fly into Nice Côte d'Azur and continue by helicopter, car or tender. We coordinate jets, helicopters and chauffeurs with boarding times.
One point of contact
One adviser for the whole week
Yacht, position, catering, transfers, aviation and viewings are coordinated by one LUND GROUP adviser. LUND GROUP is independent and is not the organiser of, or an official partner of, the Monaco Yacht Show.
