Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 27 February 2019: Dubai hosted the first of five events organised to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Azimut Yachts, a two-day celebration dedicated to Italian taste and style, organized for Azimut Yachts Owners in the Gulf region.

From tomorrow, the presence of the brand in Dubai continues at the 27th edition of the Dubai International Boat Show, where some of the most representative models will be on the show, including Azimut Grande 25 Metri and Azimut S7, an absolute premire for the Middle East.

The Bulgari Yacht Club & Marina, a luxury resort in Dubai, specially designed to evoke the allure of the Mediterranean coastline, hosted the first of five international events organised by the Azimut|Benetti Group to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Azimut Yachts. A two-day event and tours aboard Azimut Yachts marked the start of a year of celebration in honour of the Shipyard founded in 1969 by Paolo Vitelli.

The event, which took place on 22nd and 23rd February, as well as presenting a preview of the two new premires for the Middle East, alternated moments of pure entertainment with refined culinary experiences, to delight Azimut Yachts owners, who came not only from Dubai but also from other significant locations in the Gulf area, a region where Azimut Yachts has been present for more than 20 years.

The exclusive dinner, served in the sophisticated garden area of the resort, ended with the traditional yachts parade which was the highlight of the evening.

Dubai, the business and financial hub of the Middle East as well as a growing hub for the yachting industry, will also host the 27th Dubai International Boat Show starting 26th February to 2nd March and Azimut Yachts will be extending its presence in the region by taking part in the show.
