The Cape Town International Boatshow

We are proud to invite you to participate in the 17th Cape Town International Boat Show, hosted this year by the V & A Waterfront. As always, the show will showcase the very best of South Africa’s growing stable of catamarans, as well as imported luxury craft, and all the gear and equipment visitors expect to see. The show always attracts thousands of high quality visitors, and this year will be no exception.
20 - 22 October 2017
Tickets: R100 Adults, R50 scholars and boat/yacht club members with valid membership cards.

VENUE -This year the show takes place at the V & A North Wharf Marina with an extended water display and with our shore based exhibitors housed in the exhibition marquee, adjacent to the marinas. Exhibitors have demanded that the show be presented in one venue, and this year we are delivering that. As hosts, the V & A Waterfront are hugely excited about the show taking place entirely under their jurisdiction and have promised to put their huge marketing and PR abilities to work to ensure the right visitors attend the show, in numbers.


VISITORS – Over the last 15 years the show has attracted close to 200 000 people, from all over South Africa and abroad. They range from current boat owners looking to upgrade their boats, to buy the latest electronic equipment, to get safety gear, to those who dream about owning a boat. Families looking for a healthy, outdoor alternative sign up for sailing courses or buy a small runabout. The rich and famous get onto the range of beautiful catamarans, sport fishing boats or luxury motor yachts and make their plans. Every potential boat owner in the country knows that the Cape Town International Boat Show is where you come to see the best the market has to offer.
