The countdown for boot Dusseldorf 2018 is well under way and preparations for the 49th edition of the largest watersports fair in the world are in full swing! Already it is foreseeable that previous records in the number of exhibitors as well as exhibition space will be topped. And, of course, there will also be many new attractions and events during the show which will be running from 20th to 28th January 2018.














The Dive Center in Hall 3 will be redesigned, and the Beach World will be merged with THE WAVE under one roof in Hall 8a. The "ocean tribute" Award will add another high prodile award ceremony to the events calendar of boot Düsseldorf. And, most importantly, the diversity of the leading international Boat Show will be demonstarted as never before with well over 1,800 participating companies - a new record participation is to be expected!

It is the international trendsetter in the industry and will have exciting new attractions in 2018, too. boot Düsseldorf is the leading destination anywhere in the world for everyone who loves sports in, by and on the water – surfers, divers, marine holidaymakers and sailors or motorboaters, inflatable boats or luxury yacht fans."
