When boot 2025 opens its doors for nine days on 18 January, it will once again showcase the crème de la crème of the water sports industry. Above all, the enormous range of yachts and boats is the asset with which the trade fair will clearly outperform its competitors again in the coming year.

Seventeen exhibition halls with more than 1,000 boats, surfboards, diving equipment and lots of water sports destinations all over the world make boot Düsseldorf the top event in the industry. Director Petros Michelidakis said, “The music is playing in Düsseldorf!

“If you want to experience the diversity of water sports and learn more about them in person, this is the right place for you. The central location of boot in the heart of Europe, with excellent flight and rail connections, creates an international marketplace with ideal conditions for successful business deals and offers perfect networking opportunities.

“Every year, exhibitors at boot report numerous sales during the fair itself, as well as thousands of additional leads that guarantee them good business in the post-fair period. Next year, some manufacturers and shipyards will only be able to show a reduced product range at boot or will have to cancel due to the current challenging economic situation.”
