Palm Beach International Boat Show

Palm Beach, FL, United States

20 - 23 Mar 2025

By Editorial Team

One of the top yacht shows in the US, the Palm Beach International Boat Show (PBIBS) mixes a boutique feel with some serious yachting collateral, including an ever-more impressive superyacht line-up.

Launched in 1985, PBIBS is now an annual mainstay of the global yachting community, showcasing more than 800 boats and a grand selection of marine accessories at each event.

Usually held in March, the four-day event runs during an ideal time of the year weather-wise and is the last major yacht show of the international boat show season. Over 55,000 visitors attend each year, flocking to Flagler Drive in downtown West Palm Beach, Florida, to take in the magnificent exhibits.

What to expect at the Palm Beach International Boat Show

There is always a spectacular fleet of superyachts and luxury charter yachts in attendance, while hundreds of other boats, ranging from 8ft inflatables, powerboats, and bowriders to fishing boats, are also on show.

Owned by the Marine Industries Association of Palm Beach County and produced by Informa Markets, the USA-based event offers a complete yachting lifestyle package with show highlights including fishing seminars, water sports demonstrations, plus floating cocktail lounges with live entertainment and refreshments.

With thousands of visitors attending the event annually, the Palm Beach Boat Show also provides an amazing opportunity for charter guests on a corporate charter looking to network with prospective clients and industry figureheads. 

Superyacht Villas

A side attraction that showcases the epitome of superyachts and motor yacht charters, the Superyacht Villas are home to the biggest and most spectacular superyachts attending the Palm Beach International Boat Show.

Hosting striking yachts with an LOA up to 100 meters, this designated area is primed with inspiration for indulgent crewed yacht charters with admission being included with general tickets to the Palm Beach International Boat Show.

If you're looking for inspiration on what the ultimate North America yacht charter looks like, this is the place to find it.

Chartering Florida and PBIBS

Just a stone's throw away from the beautiful Bahamas. Palm Beach and Florida are highly sought-after charter yacht destinations offering the best of a two-tone vacation experience. 

With cosmopolitan glitz and glamour sitting adjacent to sunkissed beaches and incredible diving opportunities, there are many reasons why Florida is such a popular location for family yacht charter experiences.
