Red Sea Yacht Show in Jeddah Set to Display Superyachts Valued at Over $3 Billion

• Organizers estimate the show could generate up to $500 million in economic activity through yacht sales, charters, and tourism.

The inaugural Red Sea Yacht Show will take place at Jeddah Yacht Club and Marina from October 14 to 17, drawing approximately 50 yachts, 150 exhibitors, and thousands of visitors. The event will feature new and pre‑owned superyachts, support vessels, and day cruisers with a combined value exceeding $3 billion. Backed by Makkah Deputy Governor Prince Saud bin Mishaal, who also chairs the National Events Calendar Committee for Jeddah, the show will include lifestyle attractions such as watch and jewellery exhibitions, fine dining, luxury automobiles, golf, and diving activities.

In addition, the exhibition will highlight more than $22.4 billion of ongoing Red Sea coastal investments, maritime infrastructure upgrades, and the extension of the region’s winter cruising season. The Public Investment Fund’s Sela has entered into a cooperation agreement with exhibition specialist Tahaluf to organize the event alongside the Monaco Yacht Show. Under this partnership, Sela and Tahaluf will oversee international promotion, develop commercial opportunities, and attract key maritime industry leaders, leveraging Sela’s event expertise and Tahaluf’s exhibition platform, with support from Informa and BOAT International, to bridge the established Monaco market with emerging prospects in the Red Sea.
