The Dubai International Boat Show 2026 will now take place 25–29 November 2026 at Dubai Harbour, marking a shift from its previously planned April schedule.
According to the organizers, the new dates align the event with the start of the Middle East’s prime boating season, creating stronger market conditions for yacht launches, brokerage activity, and international participation.
The change also signals a permanent repositioning of the Dubai International Boat Show to the November calendar, reinforcing Dubai and the UAE’s role as a key regional hub for the global marine leisure industry.
Held at the iconic Dubai Harbour, the show brings together leading shipyards, superyachts, marine technology innovators, brokerage firms, and lifestyle brands from around the world.
The Dubai International Boat Show is widely regarded as the Middle East’s most influential yachting and maritime event, attracting industry professionals, yacht buyers, investors, and enthusiasts.
