Thursday 4th - Tuesday 9th December 2025 at the Nelson's Dockyard UNESCO World Heritage Site in beautiful Antigua.

Click register on our homepage. We launched our new Registration Portal in June 2024, so if you attended last year you’ll simply be able to log-in and register for this year’s show. If you didn’t attend last year, you’ll need to select the ‘sign up’ tab and register on the new system, but don’t worry, it’s quick and easy!

That depends on what capacity you’re registering in - there are different fees for yachts, yachts for sale, brokers/agents and non-exhibiting vendors - check the individual rates here!

Yes, you can pay your registration fee via our website using a credit card. Here's what you need to do:

• Register to attend the show
• Await an email from us confirming your place
• When you receive this email, log onto the registration portal and click on the 'complete payment' tab on the left
• Click on 'pay' to pay for a single registration, or 'Pay for multiple registrations' to pay for more than one
• Next, click on 'Make card payment'
• You'll then be able to enter your card details and make your payment

The yacht registration fee allows the yacht to participate in the Antigua Charter Yacht Show. There are berth fees in addition to the registration fee - please contact the Marina of your choice to book your berth and secure any additional services required. Berth payments must be paid directly to the Marina.

Once you've registered for the show and have been approved, you must then book your berth separately at the Marina of your choice. The berth fee - plus the cost of any additional services you require - must be paid directly to the Marina.  You can find the contact information for each Marina in the Dockage section of the Registration Information page.

Nelson’s Dockyard Marina is the host marina for the show, but you can also choose to book a berth at the Antigua Yacht Club Marina or Falmouth Harbour Marina - the choice is yours! Take a look at our Marina maps to get an idea of layout and where your yacht will fit - they're berthed according to size. You can find the contact information for each Marina in the Dockage section of the Registration Information page.

Once you’ve registered you’ll need to book your flights and your accommodation in Antigua. Think about whether you’re flying in just for the show or if you plan to tag on a few days either side. You’ll also need to think about airport transfers and getting around while you’re here - check out our helpful article for more info.

The shuttles wait in front of each marina and this service is available between 9am and 6pm. There will also be golf carts with chauffeurs standing by at Nelson's Dockyard Marina to shuttle show attendees down the docks to view the yachts.

There’s lots going on each day of the show!
