After the last-minute cancellation of the Antibes Yacht Show by the company who organised the event, the President of the SAEM, Port Vauban General Manager and first Deputy Mayor of the City of Antibes, Mr. Pauget, asked the ASAP (Association to Support Port Vauban Development) to consider an alternative for the dates announced so as not to leave the popular French Riviera yacht charter destination – Antibes missing from the International Yachting calendar.

ASAP has decided to accept this challenge and in 3 weeks  has brought together more than 30 partners and 75% of the budget required for this new event: Antibes Celebrates Yachting which will take place on April 24th and 25th  2015 on Port Vauban, Bastion St Jaume and IYCA (Billionaires Quay).

Antibes Celebrates Yachting (ACY) is an event concept that combines professionalism and conviviality, an option quite suitable to the life on Port Vauban and the best potentially feasible alternative in the short time frame, considering the lack of initial funding and structure to support such an organization.
