D-Marin showcases the future of premium marina hospitality at Europe’s autumn boat shows

D-Marin, the selection of premium marinas, has announced its return to this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival and Genoa International Boat Show, to showcase its expanded portfolio of 28 marinas across nine countries and highlight the elevated, hospitality driven experience that is redefining premium marina hospitality across the Mediterranean.

Following its continued growth, including the addition of Marina di Olbia Yacht Service and Molo Brin in Sardinia, the company will use the autumn boat shows to present its evolving marina experience, combining exceptional destinations, smart technology and personalised service, and bring its “Feels Like Yachting Should Feel” philosophy to life for visitors on its immersive stand.

D-Marin will be exhibiting at:

• Cannes Yachting Festival: 8–13 September 2026, Stand Jetée Nord 154

• Genoa International Boat Show: 1–6 October 2026, Stand LX20

At both shows, visitors will be invited to explore how D-Marin is making the marina journey more effortless, exclusive and seamless. Through large interactive touchscreens, regional D-Marin team members will guide guests through the Group’s full selection of premium marinas, helping them discover different destinations, explore cruising routes and identify the marina that best suits their needs.

Visitors will also be able to experience live demonstrations of the D-Marin App, the central platform that brings D-Marin’s digital services together in one place. Through the App, customers can search for a marina, choose and book a berth, manage key services, monitor their boat through Smart Sensor technology, and track water and electricity consumption through smart pedestals. The result is a simpler, more connected marina journey, giving yacht owners greater control, visibility and peace of mind anytime, wherever they are.

Matthias Gehring, CCO of D-Marin, said: “Cannes and Genoa are important moments for us to connect with yacht owners, captains, brokers and industry partners, and to show how D-Marin continues to evolve the premium marina experience. Our expanded portfolio brings together exceptional destinations, intelligent technology and a hospitality-driven service culture, helping guests enjoy a more seamless, personalised and elevated journey across our marinas. This is what we mean by ‘Feels Like Yachting Should Feel’.”
