We know all the licensed yachts that can accommodate more than the standard 12 guests on board, so send us an enquiry now and we will help to plan your party! This week we are focusing on the French Riviera, but we can organise your events worldwide, from corporate events in Singapore to parties in Ibiza.

With so much to organise for your event, it needs to be organised well in advance. From the yacht to the berth, catering to carpets and drivers for the drinkers, there's a lot to arrange and at Boatbookings we are here to organise it all for you. Whether you want to host a corporate event during a conference, have super seats on the circuit at the Monaco Grand Prix or try a new team building technique during the Voiles de St Tropez, we have the top options for you.
We also know the best choices for your parties, birthdays, weddings or just a day out with your friends; whether you want to entertain a large group or just a few of you out for a day charter. It's the height of summer in the south of France right now and the best way to experience it is by boat!

Events in Cannes |
|
|
 |
|
|
MIPIM, MIPTV, MIDEM, Cannes Lions... the list of events in Cannes goes on.
