Düsseldorf International Boat Show and Water Sports Exhibition

The Boot Düsseldorf, the International Boat and Watersports Show in Germany, was founded in 1969 and ranks among Europe’s three most important maritime exhibitions. It is also one of the world’s largest trade shows dedicated to boats and watercraft, covering every aspect from complete vessels to individual components, while showcasing a wide array of water sports and recreational equipment under distinct thematic focuses. In particular, the concurrent diving exhibition—the largest consumer‑oriented diving show in Europe—has become a major highlight, attracting significant attention from professional buyers.

As a leading event in the international watersports sector, this year’s edition welcomed 1,950 exhibitors from 67 countries, presenting a vibrant and diverse panorama of the watersports world. Ninety-four percent of visitors expressed high praise for the show, with powerboats, sailing yachts, surfing gear, diving equipment, and tourism services all leaving attendees thoroughly impressed.

The appeal of Boot Düsseldorf extends beyond Germany: more than 63% of exhibitors hail from other European nations and overseas markets, notably Italy, the Netherlands, and France—key manufacturing hubs for watersports products. Meanwhile, visitors traveled from 113 countries, totaling over 200,000 attendees, one-third of whom came from outside Germany. Attendance from North America and Asia continues to grow steadily, with particularly strong representation from the United States and China.

Marius Berlemann, Chief Operating Officer of Messe Düsseldorf, stated: “Boot Düsseldorf is a perfect convergence of elements: it is not only a premier watersports extravaganza but also a top‑tier business platform, complemented by captivating performances from leading figures in sailing, diving, and surfing. And of course, we remain committed to advocating for ocean conservation, urging everyone to protect our seas.”
