In addition to many different well-known shipyards such as Bavaria, Beneteau, Delphia and Hydrolift, a whole host of suppliers and accessory dealers will also be presenting their latest products. Over 600 exhibited boats await visitors from Germany and abroad at the exhibition centre under the Berlin Radio Tower.
Daniel Barkowski, long-standing project manager of "Boot & Fun", describes his own trade fair as a must-attend event: "With a diverse, high-quality and really attractive range of brands and models, we are once again emphasising this year: Berlin is where the music is." The trade fair sees its own focus in the inland area as well as the Baltic Sea and the coastal areas of the Mediterranean.
Highlights at Boot & Fun
M-Yachts is providing one of the highlights at its trade fair premiere in Berlin. They will be showing the prototype of the Swedish electric boat X Shore Pro. There will also be an opportunity to test drive the X Shore 1 Open on the Wannsee. However, advance booking is required for this, in which case a shuttle service to the boat will be available.
Guests and visitors to "Boot & Fun" will find plenty of hands-on activities, especially in Hall 25, where they can experience the latest surfing and fun sports trends, such as pump foiling and e-foiling. The "Fun-Sport Pool" also attracts visitors. It might be worth bringing your swimming gear. For those who prefer to stay dry, the skimboard and trickboard zone awaits.
