Seatrade Med Cruise & Superyacht Convention

The Mediterranean market is on the move

Cruise passengers continue to be drawn to the Mediterranean’s diverse, year-round attractions, with 162 ships active in the region during 2010, carrying a potential 3.47 million passengers between them. The Mediterranean cruise market is expected to continue to grow through 2011 and 2012.

 

Four Mediterranean countries topped the list of most visited cruise destinations in 2010, accounting between them for two thirds of passenger visits in Europe. France, with its €1 billion cruise economy, took fourth position, and enjoys further strong engagement with the industry through its shipbuilding expertise.

Seatrade Med, a UBM plc event, returns to France in November 2012, to the country’s leading cruise port, Marseille, and is organised in association with Marseille Provence Cruise Club.
 

Once again the event's core elements; showcase exhibition, high-level industry conference, bespoke travel agent training and exceptional social events will combine to formulate the region's largest cruise gathering.
