The Superyacht Technology Show returns for its sixth edition on 10 to 11 March 2026, taking place at the World Trade Center Barcelona. Now firmly established as the industry’s leading event dedicated entirely to superyacht technology, the show brings together innovators, suppliers, and technical professionals from across the global superyacht sector.

YPI CREW is pleased to confirm that our President, Laurence Lewis, and our Head of Engineering, Jacqui Young, will be attending the 2026 edition. Both will be on site throughout the show to connect with industry peers and stay close to the latest developments shaping the technical future of yachting.

About the Superyacht Technology Show

Taking place over two days in the heart of Barcelona, the Superyacht Technology Show is the only exhibition in the industry dedicated 100 percent to superyacht technology. With more than 60 exhibitors, the show covers everything from bridge systems and AV and IT to communications, cybersecurity, engineering solutions, sustainability, interiors, and next generation connectivity.

Alongside the exhibition, the TECHTalks Conference delivers a focused programme of short, high impact talks from industry experts. These sessions are designed to challenge assumptions, spark discussion, and provide practical insight, with a strict no sales pitch policy that keeps the content relevant and forward looking.

A Key Event for Technical Yacht Professionals

The Superyacht Technology Show attracts a wide range of professionals, including Engineers, ETOs, AV and IT Officers, Technical Crew, Owners’ Representatives, Shipyard and Technical Managers, and Yacht Management teams. With networking built into the core of the event, it offers valuable opportunities to exchange ideas, discuss real-world challenges, and explore how emerging technologies are being applied on board today’s yachts.

Industry professionals may also be eligible for complimentary tickets to the Superyacht Technology Show 2026. The event offers a free Industry Guest Pass, subject to approval, for Captains, senior technical crew, owners’ representatives, shipyard and yacht management teams, designers, and other professionals involved in superyacht technology. Approved passes provide access to the exhibition floor, the TECHTalks Conference, and the show’s curated networking events across both days, with alternative ticket options available for those who do not meet the eligibility criteria.
