Exclusive: MYBA and MEDYS announce dates for 2025 shows
The dates for the Mediterranean Yacht Show and the MYBA Charter Show have been announced for 2025. Also known as MEDYS, next year’s edition will be the 10th event in the Association's history, while MYBA will be celebrating the 35th show.
MEDYS 2024
Organised by the Greek Yachting Association, MEDYS will take place in Nafplio, Greece from Saturday 3 May to Wednesday 7 May 2025. The event will follow the format of previous years and will host an impressive lineup of superyachts.
Michael Skoulikidis, President of the GYA, told Yacht Charter Market, “Each year, the announcement of the dates for the Mediterranean Yacht Show (MEDYS) fills us with great pleasure and excitement, as it marks a thrilling and highly productive period of preparation for an amazing event recognised as the world’s largest crewed yacht charter show.
We are thrilled to announce that the 10th Mediterranean Yacht Show (MEDYS) will take place from Saturday 3 May to Wednesday 7 May in the picturesque town of Nafplio. This milestone event celebrates a decade of showcasing the finest yachts and services, as well as the exceptional hospitality for which Greece is renowned. MEDYS has become a cornerstone of the global yachting calendar, and we are excited to welcome industry professionals and brokers from around the world to experience the uniqueness of Greek yachting.”
Skoulikidis continued, “As we mark this significant anniversary, we are committed to making the 10th MEDYS the most memorable edition yet. Attendees can look forward to an array of magnificent yachts, unforgettable social events, and unparalleled networking opportunities. Our focus remains on promoting the highest standards of Greek yachting excellence and fostering strong relationships within the community. We look forward to celebrating this special occasion with all our esteemed participants and partners.”
MYBA 2024
Before confirming the 2025 show dates, the GYA liaised and aligned with MYBA, the organisers of the MYBA Charter Show, to ensure the chosen dates would allow industry professionals to attend both events easily.
The MYBA Charter Show will precede the MEDYS, taking place from Monday 28 April to Thursday 1 May 2025, at a location that will be revealed shortly by MYBA. This year’s MYBA show was held in Genoa, after five successful years in Barcelona.
Gunes Aysun, MYBA board member, told Yacht Charter Market, "We are thrilled to announce the dates for the 2025 MYBA Charter Show. While the exact marina location is yet to be finalised, we are considering two exceptional options that promise to provide the perfect setting for our Show.
We look forward to another outstanding event that will showcase the very best in the yachting industry, and also wish all success to the Greek Yachting Association with MEDYS."

DESTINATION SPOTLIGHT
Travel Inspiration: Athens
Athens, the capital city of Greece, is a city characterised by its historical and cultural richness. The Acropolis is an ancient citadel located on a rocky outcrop above the city and is a must-see for those visiting Athens. History lovers can enjoy the National Archaeological Museum, Greece’s largest museum enriched with details about Greece’s history.
Athens | Sven Hansche
Birthplace of both democracy and the Olympic Games, it is fair to say that Athens has iconic history and influence which spans across neolithic and ancient and classical periods to the present day. These historical eras are reflected in the city’s architectural tapestry. Guests can wander through a labyrinth of magical lanes when visiting the oldest part of Athens - Plaka - often nicknamed the neighbourhood of the Gods due to its close proximity to important archaeological sites like the Acropolis.
Athens | gantoniou
Athens is overflowing with things to do. In the pedestrianised area of Voukourestiou, visitors can indulge in a bounty of shops boasting designer labels and local boutiques. Outdoor cinemas are a romantic and quintessential Athens summer experience, and Cine Aegli is the city’s oldest open-air cinema. Guests are spoilt with five-star spas and rooftop bars with views of the Acropolis.
