The seafaring horizon has a new date to look forward to as the Dubai International Boat Show unfurls its sails for a permanent shift in schedule. Now set to take place from 25 to 29 November 2026 at the opulent Dubai Harbour, the illustrious event will no longer berth in April.

The main objective behind this repositioning is to align the coveted meeting of maritime minds with the Middle East’s prime boating season. This strategic move is anticipated to create thriving market conditions, boosting launches, sales and fostering international involvement.

The not-to-be-missed collection of marine mavens will now take place a week after METSTRADE (17 to 19 November) and a week before the anticipated Abu Dhabi Boat Show, projected to run from 19th to 22nd November 2026.
