World Premieres Take Centre Stage in Cannes

22 septembre 2026

The Cannes Yachting Festival 2026 has come to an end after six intensive days on the French Riviera. For HanseYachts AG, one of the world’s major in-water boat shows was especially busy: 10 yachts on display, two world premieres and hundreds of conversations with visitors and prospective clients.

Two World Premieres in the Spotlight

The Hanse 461 marked the return of an iconic name to the Hanse range, introducing a new generation of easy sailing, fast cruising and onboard comfort.

Visitors had the first opportunity to step aboard the new model, explore its flexible interior and experience features such as the new Beach Club concept.

On the motor yacht side, the FJORD 440 Open made its global debut with a clear focus on open-air living, performance and technology. Its spacious cockpit, reversible aft seating, hydraulic bathing platform and new interior concept attracted plenty of attention throughout the show.

Both premieres became central meeting points at our stands and generated many conversations with clients, dealers and industry professionals.

10 Yachts Across Four Brands

Beyond the two premieres, Cannes offered visitors a broad look at the HanseYachts AG portfolio.

In total, we presented four Hanse models, three FJORD models, two SEALINE yachts and one Moody. The line-up covered very different styles of yachting - from compact and easy-to-handle models such as the Hanse 360 to larger yachts created for extended time on the water, including the Hanse 590 and Moody DS48.

This broad selection gave visitors the opportunity to compare different concepts, layouts and ways of spending time at sea, all within one of the most important events of the international yachting calendar.

Six Days of Conversations and Connections

A boat show is about much more than the yachts on display. Throughout the festival, our teams and dealers welcomed visitors from around the world, answered questions, presented individual models and discussed future sailing and motor yacht plans.

Hundreds of conversations over the six days once again showed how valuable direct contact with customers remains. Cannes provided the opportunity not only to introduce new products, but also to listen, exchange ideas and understand what owners and future owners are looking for.

Thank You to Everyone Involved

An event on this scale is only possible thanks to the work of many people behind the scenes and on site.

We would like to thank all HanseYachts AG employees, our dealers, partners and everyone involved in making Cannes Yachting Festival 2026 possible. From preparing and transporting the yachts to welcoming visitors and supporting the premieres throughout the week, every contribution played an important part.

Thank you as well to everyone who visited our stands, stepped aboard our yachts and took the time to speak with our teams.
