Go to MEDYS and EMMYS Yacht Shows on a Luxe Boat

The Mediterranean Yacht Show (MEDYS) and the East Med Multihull and Yacht Charter Show (EMMYS) represent the two pillars of the Greek yachting calendar, specifically designed for industry professionals to kick off the summer season. MEDYS, held in the historic port of Nafplio, has grown into the world’s largest exhibition of its kind, focusing on luxury crewed charter yachts with Greek commercial licenses. It serves as a high-stakes networking hub where international brokers inspect over 100 elite vessels and evaluate crew performance through events like the prestigious Chefs’ Competition. The scale of the show in Nafplio highlights the sheer volume and diversity of the Greek motor and sailing yacht fleet, drawing attendees from nearly 30 countries to witness the absolute pinnacle of Mediterranean maritime luxury.

Shortly after MEDYS concludes, the focus shifts to the scenic island of Poros for EMMYS. This show carves out a specialized niche by emphasizing the rapidly expanding multihull market, showcasing a concentrated selection of catamarans and sailing yachts. Now entering its third decade, EMMYS provides a more intimate but equally professional environment where the Hellenic Professional Yacht Owners Association promotes the unique benefits of island-hopping on versatile, modern vessels. For 2026, the two events are scheduled back-to-back, with MEDYS running from May 2–6 and EMMYS following from May 7–10. Together, they form an essential "yachting week" that allows the global brokerage community to vet the finest crews and vessels available in Greek waters before the peak charter season begins.
