Owing the popularity of Europe hosts world's biggest boat shows in 2010
As the largest event on the Mediterranean, the Genoa Boat Show is the world’s number one showcase for the very best the Made in Italy brand has to offer, welcoming every year industry professionals and boating enthusiasts alike to over 200,000 square metres of display area on land and sea.
Since its first successful introduction in 2018, the Genoa Boat Show has taken on a new multi-specialised format, that of 4 Boat Shows in 1, each entirely complementary yet at the same time characterised by their own specific identities: no divisions, no limits, just an extension of the Genoa Boat Show’s key strength, that of being a cross-segment event with in-depth vertical support chains that define a tailored one-to-one relationship with each and every exhibitor and visitor.
The layout provides a TechTrade Fair dedicated to components and equipment, a sailing boat show (Sailing World), an area dedicated to outboard motorboats (Boat Discovery) and a Yacht and Superyacht Show.
