The 2025 Barcelona International Boat Show charts a new course, evolving into a more exclusive event showcasing top global brands in an expanded Port Vell setting. From October 8th to 12th 2025, Fira de Barcelona, in partnership with ANEN and leading industry figures, will host an event designed to elevate the experience for both exhibitors and attendees.

This transformation centers around a focus on larger vessels, increased participation from international shipyards, and attracting a highly qualified, affluent audience. Expanding the exhibition space to include the Barcelona pier alongside the Fusta, España, and Marina Port Vell docks, the show will offer enhanced accessibility via a shuttle boat connecting the Barcelona and España docks.

“This new format positions the show among Europe’s leading nautical events, reinforcing Barcelona’s status as a nautical hub,” states Event President Luis Conde. Director Josep Antoni Llopart adds, “We are prioritizing quality to attract a professional, international audience and drive sales.” ANEN CEO Jordi Carrasco emphasizes that this evolution aligns with market trends and enhances the experience for all involved.
A hosted buyers program, supported by a network of ambassadors comprising key industry players and yacht clubs, will attract major international buyers. A dedicated 2,500m² village in the Portal de la Pau area will provide premium dining and entertainment options.

Continuing its commitment to sustainability, the blue economy, and innovation, the show will feature conferences at the Agora, coordinated by Port de Barcelona. The opening day will be reserved exclusively for major buyers, industry professionals, and media. The 2025 Barcelona International Boat Show promises a refined and impactful experience.
