The World Superyacht Awards have come a long way since its launch in 2005. What began as a celebration of the finest yachts delivered each year has grown into one of the most prestigious events in the yachting calendar, bringing together owners, designers, shipyards and industry leaders from around the world.
Over two decades, the awards have travelled to some of Europe’s most iconic cities – from London and Amsterdam to Monaco and Florence – before returning once again to Venice for the 2026 edition. Along the way, they have celebrated hundreds of remarkable yachts, welcomed an ever-growing community of guests and relied on the expertise of a dedicated judging panel made up of experienced superyacht owners.
Boat International have broken it all down in their latest feature, exploring the World Superyacht Awards by numbers.
