How do you build one of the Med's leading superyacht shows from the ground up—and keep evolving it year after year?

In this special episode of The Yacht Show, we are honoured to welcome our very first guest: Arne Ploch, one of the original founders of the Palma Superyacht Village and also Senior Yacht Broker from one of the leading yacht brokerages in the world, Camper and Nicholsons.

If you don't know already, the Palma Superyacht Village is a dedicated showcase for brokerage superyachts that runs alongside the Palma International Boat Show each spring in Mallorca. The show has revolutionised the boat show scene in Mallorca and beyond due to being a purely brokerage show, compared to most boat shows that focus solely on new yachts.

Hosted by Brandon Brown, this conversation dives into the story behind the show: how the concept for a separate brokerage superyacht space came to life, what it takes to keep the event fresh and relevant each year, including the New Build Hub and how Arne envisions its future in the context of the ever-changing yachting market.

Whether you're a yacht enthusiast, a broker, or just curious about what goes on behind the scenes of one of Europe's fastest-growing yacht shows, this episode offers rare insights from one of the industry's most respected and forward-thinking figures.
