This will be the second year in a row that the automotive and boat shows have combined for a single spectacular event. With just one ticket, visitors can access both of these amazing shows.
Whether coming for the boats or the cars, there is much to enjoy at the Houston AutoBoative Show.

It takes place at the NRG Center, a massive convention center offering more than 700,000 square feet of exhibition space, and much of that space is used to host vehicles, vendors, attractions, and more.
At the boat show, more than 200 vendors showcase the latest and greatest in boating innovation. Many different boats will be offered at excellent prices.

RV models are also spotlighted, as well as an array of different equipment sales.
This event isn’t just about shopping for new vehicles and gear. The Houston AutoBoative Show also doubles as a unique educational experience.
