Set in the heart of the City of Sails with a new format and venue seeing the show take place in Jellicoe Harbour, previously the America’s Cup team bases, New Zealand’s biggest boat show showcases more than 200 domestic and international marine businesses, including dozens of vessel manufacturers and boat brokers.

Perfectly timed to lead into the summer boating season, Auckland Boat Show is the only boating expo in New Zealand where visitors can experience a huge display of luxury launches, innovative products and on-water sea trials.

New Zealand’s leading boat distributors, importers and brokers are complemented by top marine electronics, marine engine and ancillary equipment suppliers, alongside chandlers, marine service providers and plenty of b2b businesses.

If you are looking to buy a new vessel, try out a water sport, contemplating a new-build or refit or just want to discover the most innovative new releases on the marine market, you’ll find all you need at the show.

From marine diesels to fishing seminars; electronics to safety equipment, lighting to the latest large cruising vessels, the Auckland Boat Show has it covered.
