Cruise Ship Interiors (CSI), a premier exhibition and conference fully dedicated to the cruise ship industry, has announced that registration for Cruise Ship Interiors Design Expo Europe (CSI Europe) is now open.
Cruise line design teams, expert shipyards, design studios, and procurement specialists attending the trade fair from December 2-3 can obtain free passes. These passes help them source materials for upcoming projects and stay ahead in marine interior design.
Visitors will discover new ways to explore and uncover previously unseen areas of the cruise ship interiors trade fair, as CSI Europe prepares to host over 300 exhibitors.
The Hospitality@CSI zone maintains its focus on blending guest experience and operations with the event's design emphasis, highlighting the collaborative nature of ship design.
Exhibitors, workshops, and more
This year, Four Seasons introduced its first vessel, Four Seasons I, into the growing yacht-like cruise ship market. Luxury brand Mercedes-Maybach has also announced plans to join the industry, partnering with Lloyd Werft shipyard to create a 155-metre superyacht described as the ‘world’s first invitation-only members’ club at sea.’
CSI Europe has always had a strong presence of exhibitors that supply the yacht industry, and this year, the spotlight will be on them and the industry developments.
As the only European trade fair dedicated solely to cruise ship interior design and architecture, attendees will find detailed finishes, ingenious design solutions and product launches.
Highlighted suppliers at CSI Europe include natural-material specialists Jacob Jürgensen Wood, spa favourites Fabio Alemanno Design, eye-catching furniture designers Bull & Stein, and galley highlight Franke Kaffeemaschinen.
This year’s conference aims to address design challenges across all supply chain levels and spark renewed discussions for the upcoming year.
Attendees can also join the Sustainable Design Summit, an interactive workshop focused on industry-specific sustainable solutions. For the second year in a row, a shipbuilding track will be held alongside the main conference.
The Design Deck will feature at CSI Europe this year, following its successful debut at CSI Americas. Design studios will offer their insights and discuss topics ranging from future trends to how cruise lines and design studios collaborate on projects. Additionally, for the first time at CSI Europe, outfitters will join the deck to provide a shipbuilding perspective.
On the evening of day two, the Cruise Ship Interiors Awards will take place.
This unique awards event celebrates the creativity, innovation, and beauty of the cruise ship interiors industry, honouring winners across 13 categories, such as Best Dining Space, Best Brand Original Project, and Best Interior Product of the Year.
