Miami International Boat Show

Marking 79 years in 2020, the Miami International Boat Show is one of the premiere boat shows in the United States and an annual bellweather for the US boating industry.  The Florida boating market itself is the largest in the US – worth $2.9 billion in annual retail sales of boats, engines and accessories – but the show is also a major draw for visitors outside of Florida – estimated at about 36,000 in 2019 – including international visitors, particularly from Mexico, Central and South America and the Carribean.  The Miami boat show is heavily supported by manufacturer exhibits and is well-attended by trade visitors with a strong b2b emphasis during the opening days of the 5-day event.
