Boot Düsseldorf organizers announced that registration is open for all watersports-related sectors for this year’s edition, scheduled for Jan. 23-27 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
“I look forward to every single conversation with you, our exhibitors and to working together to make January in Düsseldorf the center of the global maritime market once again,” show director Petros Michelidakis said in a statement. “Over the coming months, we will steadily step up our marketing efforts to captivate and mobilize people in all key target markets for boot in January 2027.”
Construction at Düsseldorf Exhibition Center means the show will have a slightly modified layout. Hall 9 is being refurbished and will not be available in 2027 and 2028. Exhibitors with RIBs and dinghies/tenders from Hall 9 will move to the new Motorboat Hall 17. Surfing and paddling are moving to Hall 12, which. Diving is again in Hall 13, and the Destination Boatlife segment in Hall 14 presents charter operators, houseboats and marinas.
Boot Düsseldorf this year had more than 200,000 visitors from 100-plus countries, 44% of whom made purchases, the statement said.
