A new lease of life for the multihull boat show
The 16th edition of the Salon International du Multicoque is scheduled for April 23 to 27, 2025 at La Grande Motte. Since its beginnings, this show has established itself as a benchmark for catamaran and trimaran enthusiasts, whether sailing or motoring. This 16th edition reinforces its position by introducing significant new features, while underlining its close links with the host region.
For its 2025 edition, the show is reinventing itself by proposing a segmentation between sailing multihulls and powercats. This approach aims to enrich the visitor experience and offer greater visibility to both worlds, which are undergoing rapid expansion and change.
The Powercat marina: a showcase for power multihulls
The addition of a marina specifically dedicated to motorized multihulls is one of the major new features. Located on the Quai des Douanes, this marina offers an optimized space with one kilometer of pontoons to accommodate some twenty models. The site will showcase the latest technological advances, particularly in internal combustion and electric engines, a field in full ecological transition.
By also offering the chance to try out certain models at sea, the Powercat marina guarantees immersion for potential buyers and the curious. Around 20 boats are expected in this space.
Sailboats kept on their home turf
The historic basin, dedicated to sailing multihulls, continues to play its central role in the show. Catamarans and trimarans, emblems of sustainable sailing and yachting, will be on display. A newly-constructed demonstration area afloat will also enable visitors to test these yachts in action.
With 60 confirmed multihulls, including 6 world premieres, this edition promises to be exceptional.
Segmentation designed for visitors
This clear separation of areas serves a dual purpose: to enhance the visitor experience and to meet the specific needs of exhibitors. Sailing enthusiasts can now concentrate on the models that interest them, while power catamaran enthusiasts benefit from an entirely dedicated space. This reorganization enhances the value of these two universes, making their cohabitation more fluid and highlighting their respective specificities.
An exhibitor village to bring the two worlds together
The exhibitors' village, located on land under a large tent, remains an essential stop on the show's pedestrian circuit. Here, equipment manufacturers, designers and service providers unveil their latest innovations. This shared space plays an essential role in connecting the two communities and offering a comprehensive view of technological advances and trends.
