The Southampton International Boat Show returns to Mayflower Park from 19 to 28 September 2025, marking its 56th edition with a major redesign and extended features.
A new layout and visitor experience
Organisers have announced a new show layout, including a relocated entrance on Mayflower Park, dedicated feature zones, and enhanced on-water experiences. Europe’s largest purpose-built show marina remains central to the ten-day event, hosting hundreds of marine brands, new vessels, and interactive experiences.
Feature zones for all interests
New zones debut this year, including The Powerhub for powerboat enthusiasts and Angler’s Alley catering to the fishing community. A new Boating Academy will offer talks and expert advice tailored to beginners and experienced mariners alike. Premium ticket holders can access the new Waterside Lounge, providing a private, relaxed environment within the showgrounds.
On-water experiences and inclusivity
The popular Try A Boat sessions with FlexiSail return, allowing visitors to get afloat on yachts and motor cruisers free of charge. Wetwheels will once again provide fully accessible powerboat rides, ensuring inclusive access for visitors of all abilities.
Entertainment and retail highlights
The On The Water stage, located within the marina, will feature an adrenaline-filled programme of jet ski stunts and other high-speed demonstrations. Final line-ups will be announced shortly.
The show’s retail areas offer marine clothing, chandlery, and tech gear. The Dive Tank, hosted by Andark, provides free diving sessions with expert tuition. The Shipyard festival zone delivers live music, family activities, and street food, with a headline act to be revealed.
