The 2025 Sydney Boat Show exceeded expectations, welcoming 23,525 attendees across four days. Spanning more than 21,000 square metres, the event featured over 130 exhibitors, 400+ boats, and thousands of marine accessories and technologies. More than 16 new products were unveiled, including four global debuts, reinforcing the show's reputation as a launchpad for innovation and a catalyst for industry stability and growth.
BIA CEO Andrew Fielding highlighted that the 2026 event will showcase the strength, resilience, and diverse offerings of Australia’s boating, fishing, and broader marine communities, while providing an influential platform for businesses to present their latest products and connect with a highly engaged audience.
Fielding emphasized the strategic location of the venue, noting that the Sydney Showground at Sydney Olympic Park is geographically central to the Greater Sydney region, making it easily accessible for visitors from all parts of the city and beyond. This accessibility is expected to attract a diverse audience, from seasoned boat owners to first-time buyers, and from fishing novices to professionals.
The Sydney Boat Show delivers an economic boost to the NSW economy, with millions in sales and orders underpinning tens of thousands of marine jobs. In a climate where global conditions are prompting more Australians to embrace local leisure pursuits, the marine lifestyle remains both accessible and rewarding, and the Sydney Boat Show is where that opportunity truly comes to life for exhibitors and attendees alike.
