The annual Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show, the world’s largest boat and yacht show, will attract tens of thousands of visitors for an unforgettable waterfront spectacle in February. Organized by the National Marine Manufacturers Association and the International Yacht Brokers Association, the Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show serves as a major lift to the boating industry each year. With more than 1,000 of the biggest brands in the industry and over 1,000 boats on display, over 100,000 people attended last year’s event.
Scheduled from February 14th to 18th, the 2024 Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show offers five days of excitement and plenty of opportunities to find the boat of your dreams. Due to its magnitude, the event spans across six areas: the Miami Beach Convention Center, Pride Park, Herald Plaza, Venetian Marina, Museum Park Marina, and Superyacht Miami at Yacht Haven Grande Miami, with much of the boat show taking place on the water.
At the show, attendees can browse from the largest pool of options in the world, engage with experts from top brands, and get everything from a new ship to top-of-the-line gear. Buying a boat is a significant decision, and the Miami International Boat Show consolidates all your boating needs into one convenient location.
The Miami Beach Convention Center features smaller boats, accessories, electronics, and retail pavilions. On the water, visitors can step aboard and test-drive boats ranging from mid-sized to massive. From sailboats and catamarans to some of the most luxurious yachts that money can buy, this event covers the entire spectrum of watercraft.
The SuperYacht Miami portion of the event, hosted by the opulent Yacht Haven Grande Miami, showcases some of the world’s most luxurious water vehicles. Visitors can enter these spectacular vessels and meet with yacht builders to discuss the industry and learn about custom-built yachts – a rare, can’t-miss experience for boat enthusiasts.
In addition to purchasing and browsing the selection of products at the show, visitors can enjoy the Progressive Boat Show Experience, featuring entertainment, dining options, educational seminars, and more. This family-friendly portion includes activities such as a mega claw machine, a massive freshwater pool for demonstrations and competitions, and an interactive learning center.
Visitors can purchase tickets to the event online, with two-day general admission priced at $75. SuperYacht Miami admission is sold separately, with one-day tickets available for $135. Additional ticket packages providing various benefits are also available for purchase.
