The Mediterranean Season Awakens: Boatsters Black at the Palma International Boat Show 2026
There is a specific energy that fills the air in Mallorca as April turns to May. It is the sound of rigging clinking in the breeze, the sight of freshly polished hulls reflecting the Gothic spires of La Seu Cathedral, and the unmistakable feeling that the Mediterranean yachting season has officially begun.
From April 29 to May 2, 2026, the Palma International Boat Show (PIBS) returns to its iconic home at Moll Vell. This isn’t just a trade show; it is a 65,000sqm celebration of the maritime lifestyle, and Boatsters Black will be at the heart of the action.
The 2026 Event: Bigger, Bolder, Brighter
This year’s edition marks a significant evolution for the show. While the traditional heart remains the Superyacht Village at Moll Vell, the event has expanded to include the Superyacht New Build Hub at Club de Mar. Spanning 5,000sqm, this new area is connected by seamless VIP sea shuttles, allowing guests to oscillate between the world of brokerage and the future of naval construction.
