Show organisers have revealed an impressive early selection of leading exhibitors and sponsors, as the event shapes up for its “largest edition yet”.
Azimut, Ferretti Group, Leopard Catamarans and regional dealers Simpson Marine, Boat Lagoon Yachting and DCH Marine are among confirmed in-water exhibitors for the 2026 Singapore Yachting Festival, which will be held at ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove from April 23-26.
Simpson Marine’s brands include Sanlorenzo, Bluegame, Nautor Swan and Axopar, Boat Lagoon Yachting’s portfolio comprises Princess, Jeanneau and Sacs, while DCH Marine is the Asia-Pacific representative of Sunseeker, Saxdor and Williams.
Organisers expect more than 70 yachts, 200-plus brands and more than 13,000 visitors at the four-day show, which will again be preceded by the Southeast Asia Yachting Conference (April 21-22) and the Yacht Style Awards gala dinner (April 22), with both events also held at ONE°15 Marina.
On land, Damen Yachting has reaffirmed its support as a major sponsor of the Singapore Yachting Festival and will again present the Superyacht Lounge, following the Dutch superyacht builder’s positive experience at the 2025 edition of Asia’s leading boat show.
Sarah Flavell, Damen Yachting’s Marketing Manager, said: “Damen Yachting is delighted to return as main sponsor of the Superyacht Lounge. As interest in larger yacht ownership continues to grow in this region and with an increasing number of superyachts venturing into Southeast Asian waters, we recognise that the Singapore Yachting Festival plays an instrumental role in bringing together key decision-makers from across the Asia Pacific region.
“The event builds on a strong marine leisure foundation while fostering collaboration, education and knowledge sharing, making it an ideal platform for engagement within the superyacht sector. We look forward to demonstrating our commitment to this dynamic market and showcasing how Damen Yachting’s diverse portfolio of superyachts is uniquely suited to meet the needs of owners and operators in this region.”
Furthermore, the show has been boosted by the return of JP Morgan Private Bank as the Official Bank Partner.
Harshika Patel, CEO of JP Morgan Private Bank in Asia, stated: “JP Morgan Private Bank is delighted to renew our partnership with the Singapore Yachting Festival for a second consecutive year as the Official Bank Partner. This collaboration draws on our rich sailing heritage, dating back to John Pierpont Morgan and his son – both influential yachtsmen – and highlights our commitment to excellence, innovation and teamwork, values at the heart of our firm.
“Our continued partnership also underscores our dedication to creating exceptional experiences aligned with our clients’ passions and to helping drive the dynamic growth of the yachting industry in Asia. We look forward to celebrating the spirit of yachting together with this vibrant community in Singapore and across the region.”
The show is also introducing a new invitation-only VIP experience, with buyers invited to exclusive VIP luncheons and cocktail receptions aboard a superyacht, where they will network with ultra-high-net-worth guests and enjoy bespoke culinary presentations by private chefs.
To raise the profile of the regional show, organisers will host promotional events in Jakarta in January, Bangkok in February and Singapore in March, targeting yacht owners, high-net-worth clients, industry leaders and media.
