Yacht Racing Forum gets a reboot

Published on September 5th, 2023

Following the 13th edition of the Yacht Racing Forum in 2022, the international conference dedicated to the sport of sailing is getting a reboot as it skips 2023 and commits to hosting the event in 2024 alongside METSTRADE Amsterdam, the world’s leading maritime industry trade fair.

METSTRADE Amsterdam brings together some 20,000 participants each year, and presents the products of some 1,500 exhibitors in its spacious showrooms.

“The Forum’s arrival is expected to bolster METSTRADE’s status as a versatile platform that caters to a diverse audience and offers various opportunities for different interests or industries related to yacht racing or the marine sector,” said Niels Klarenbeek, Show Director of METSTRADE. “We can’t wait to join forces and bring together the world of yacht racing and leisure marine equipment.”

Organized by MaxComm and hosted by METSTRADE Amsterdam, the 2024 Yacht Racing Forum will reassemble the sports’ key personalities from all over the world over three days (on November 20-22) of conferences, debates and business, not to mention an attractive social calendar.
