Late February· Dubai Harbour, UAE

Yachting Superyacht Private jet

Why the circuit stops here

The Gulf’s yacht market in session at the peak of the desert winter: the region’s buyers shop superyachts at home before the fleet sails for the Mediterranean summer.

The money signal

The Gulf is the superyacht industry’s fastest-growing buyer base, and this is where those orders start.

Who's there

Gulf buyers, brokers chasing the region’s fastest-growing order book, shipyard reps.

How they arrive

  • The harbour is the venue: berths book out months ahead and the best parties happen on deck, not on shore.
  • Private aviation is the default: expect FBO slots and hotel helipads to be the real constraint, not tickets.
