The Cannes Yachting Festival 2024
The SHOW
Since 1977, the Cannes Yachting Festival takes place every September in elegant, luxurious surroundings in the sparkling bay of Cannes. This year’s show takes place September 10-15, 2024.
In 2024, the Yachting Festival will orchestrate this event by moving more than 100 sailing boats, monohulls, and multihulls to Port Canto to host the largest in-water exhibition of new sailboats in the world. Motor boats are remaining in the Vieux Port and sailing boats are heading for Port Canto. The show is divided into several events including the Concours d’Elegance, the fun parade of vintage and modern-day yachts that pay tribute to the rich history of the French Riviera.
As the first show in the boating season, the Cannes Yachting Festival is Europe’s leading in-water boating event. The major players in pleasure yachting come here to launch the show season by showcasing their new worldwide models.
Worth Avenue Yachts is excited to participate in this year’s yachting festival. At the show you can tour our vessels on display, speak with our industry professionals and experience the latest innovations in boating technology and gear.

AT ANCHOR - Cannes yachting festival:
KORU 163′ 8″ (49.89m) FEADSHIP
Discover the stunning transformation of Koru, formerly known as Azteca, a 49.89 meter Feadship superyacht that has been reborn after an extensive two-year refit by Ocean Technical.
Originally launched in 1983 and designed by the legendary Jon Bannenberg for Mexican billionaire Emilio Azcárraga, Koru’s story is one of innovation and elegance. Her sistership, Paraiso, and her futuristic design influenced Azcárraga’s later yacht, the 74.5-meter Blohm + Voss, Eco (now Zeus).
In February 2022, Koru arrived at Aykin Marina & Shipyard in Turkey for a complete transformation. By April 2024, she emerged with a striking new look: a navy hull with white detailing, an extended stern, and a brand new sundeck. The interior overhaul included converting the original television lounge into an additional guest cabin, enhancing her luxury and functionality.
Koru’s technical upgrades are equally impressive, featuring a major engine overhaul, updated navigation systems, and the addition of Starlink for remote connectivity. These enhancements ensure that Koru is not only visually stunning but also equipped with modern amenities for ultimate comfort and performance.
Experience the rebirth of Koru, where classic design meets contemporary luxury. Available for sale now exclusively with Worth Avenue Yachts, she promises new beginnings and adventures on the Mediterranean waters.
