boot Düsseldorf 2026 promises to be one of the most comprehensive international boating events yet, with over 1,000 boats and yachts exhibited across 16 halls from 17 to 25 January 2026. Following two years of market fluctuation, international shipyards and dealers are returning in force, reaffirming the show’s position as the world’s number one trade fair for water sports.
Both catamaran and large series boat manufacturers will use January to present themselves ready for the coming season. Many manufacturers have recognised that success in the market is linked to participation in boot.

Hall highlights include medium motor yachts in Hall 1 with names such as Elling, Linssen and Greenline; sports boats and RIBs from Brunswick, Suzuki and Yamaha in Hall 3; and innovative Scandinavian brands like Axopar, Nimbus and X-Shore in Hall 4.
Superboats and tenders from De Antonio, Frauscher X Porsche and Windy will fill Hall 5, while Hall 6 will once again become a luxury marina for superyacht giants including Sunseeker, Princess and Ferretti.
