CT Partners is pulling out all the stops for its 2026 Annual Conference aboard the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s newest luxury vessel, Luminara.
Running from 15 to 20 November 2026 the conference will be centred around the theme of ‘The Art of Travel.’
The event kicks off with CT Partners’ annual general meeting in Shanghai before an evening of live jazz at W Shanghai The Bund.
Delegates will then board Luminara for a three-night voyage visiting Hong Kong.
In keeping with the theme of the 2026 conference, ‘The Art of Travel’, Luminara boasts a collection of 731 artworks across her interiors.
Days aboard the superyacht will feature one-on-one member and supplier meetings and business sessions exploring the art of service, connection and conversation.
CT Partners CEO Matt Masson said the 2026 conference is a reflection of everything the network stands for.
“The Art of Travel is not just a theme; it is who we are. Luminara is the most extraordinary stage we could have chosen. This is more than a conference. It is a statement about the calibre of this network and the partners who believe in what we are building together,” he said.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection vice president Asia Pacific, Seb Seward, said the partnership with CT Partners is a natural fit.
“Luminara was designed to show the world what is possible when extraordinary art, impeccable service and the open sea come together,” said Seward.
“Welcoming CT Partners on board for The Art of Travel is a perfect expression of everything this superyacht stands for. This is the first time a travel industry conference of this kind has been hosted aboard a luxury superyacht, and we could not be more honoured to be the stage for it.”
