MIPIM is not like other trade shows. It is the week when Cannes welcomes international real estate decision-makers, when the Palais des Festivals becomes the venue for hundreds of strategic meetings, and when every meeting can lead to deals worth hundreds of millions of euros. Experiencing MIPIM from a fully private yacht in Cannes offers the only business setting that combines prestige, privacy, and direct proximity to the heart of the trade show.
Nautibliss organizes your yacht charter in Cannes for MIPIM, at the Vieux Port just steps from the Palais des Festivals, or at neighboring docks depending on availability. From selecting your charter yacht to the final closing dinner, our teams coordinate every detail of your week with a single point of contact, the highest standards, and complete discretion.
Nautibliss does more than just provide a yacht. Our teams handle all the event logistics.
For many real estate professionals, a yacht in Cannes becomes a fully functional office during MIPIM. The interior decks host face-to-face meetings, the saloons are transformed into meeting rooms, and the outdoor decks provide a place to relax between meetings. High-speed Wi-Fi, screens, and a uniformed crew: your teams work in conditions comparable to a Parisian or London office—with a view of the bay to boot.
The rhythm of MIPIM revolves around business meals: breakfast with an investor, team lunches, and signature dinners. Aboard your charter yacht, every meal is orchestrated by a private chef and a dedicated crew, in complete privacy. You can host four, twelve, or thirty guests, depending on the layout, in a setting that enhances the experience and fosters conversation.
MIPIM is also the perfect venue for presenting a real estate project to the press, investors, or strategic partners. From a cocktail reception to models and screens set up on board, to a presentation by the project team: our teams take charge of the yacht and coordinate the event design, technical production, and guest reception. The boat becomes a natural extension of your booth at the Palais des Festivals.
Several law firms and real estate groups choose to jointly charter a yacht in Cannes for MIPIM, sharing the costs and event planning. Whether it’s a law firm partnering with an operator, a bank collaborating with a developer, or a local government hosting its business partners, Nautibliss manages the logistical and operational coordination so that each participant maintains its visibility while benefiting from a shared hospitality experience.
Based in Cannes, just a few minutes from the Old Port, we organize annual yacht charters in Cannes for real estate firms, property groups, and international investors during MIPIM. Our in-depth knowledge of the Old Port’s locations, the city’s port authorities, and the specific constraints of MIPIM week allows us to secure the best berths and anticipate every logistical detail during a period when no room for improvisation exists.
As a subsidiary of Santarelli Marine, a family-owned group active in the boating industry since 1959, we have a Cannes yacht charter network and a depth of expertise that few other market players can offer. At an event as specialized as MIPIM, where the stakes are commercial rather than maritime, this difference is evident in every detail.
MIPIM, the International Real Estate Market, is traditionally held in Cannes in March over four days, from Tuesday to Friday, at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès. It is the world’s largest real estate event, bringing together more than 20,000 professionals from 90 countries: developers, investors, brokers, architects, banks, and local authorities. Most of our clients charter their yachts in Cannes from Monday evening through Saturday morning, with some extending their stay by a day for closing meetings.
Yacht charter rates in Cannes during MIPIM week are higher than during the peak summer season due to the limited availability of yachts in March and the concentrated demand from real estate professionals. For a 30- to 40-meter yacht in the Vieux Port, expect to pay between €100,000 and €220,000 (excluding tax) for the week, not including fees and additional services. For yachts 50 meters and longer, budgets start around €300,000. Nautibliss provides a detailed quote based on the yacht charter, location, duration, and desired itinerary.
Ideally, between 6 and 12 months in advance. The best locations in the Old Port are reserved during this period, and the number of units available in March remains limited compared to the summer season. For last-minute requests, we offer solutions based on units that are still available or alternative locations near the Palais des Festivals, depending on cancellations and last-minute adjustments.
Most of the yachts chartered for MIPIM are moored in the Old Port of Cannes, at the Quais Albert-Édouard or Saint-Pierre, less than 100 meters from the Palais des Festivals. Depending on availability, some vessels may also be moored at Port Canto, about a ten-minute walk from the event, or at the nearby port of Mandelieu for very large vessels. Nautibliss will guide you to the location best suited to your itinerary.
Yes, this is one of the most common uses of yacht charters during MIPIM. Modern yachts feature indoor lounges suitable for meetings, screens, audiovisual systems, high-speed Wi-Fi, and layouts capable of accommodating anywhere from four to several dozen people for a presentation. Nautibliss can also arrange for additional equipment (video projectors, sound systems, models, signage) to be installed according to your needs.
No, MIPIM professional badges and credentials are issued directly by the trade show organizer. Renting a yacht in Cannes does not grant access to the event. However, Nautibliss can assist you in coordinating your attendance: guest registration, arrival management, and VIP access (subject to availability), in addition to your private event.
Yes, Nautibliss offers yacht charters in Cannes year-round, outside of MIPIM. Whether you’re looking for a day at sea departing from the Old Port, a weekend yacht charter on the Riviera, or a multi-week trip in the Mediterranean, we’ll select the perfect yacht for your plans. Rates for boat rentals in Cannes outside of MIPIM are on par with those of the traditional high season, particularly during the Cannes Film Festival, Cannes Lions, and the Cannes Yachting Festival.
