Miami Yacht Show & Miami International Boat Show

February sees Miami overtaken by all things nautical when two of the USA's most prominent boat shows take place. Water taxis shuttle visitors between exhibition areas and even more superyachts than usual are reflected in the skyscrapers along Miami beach.

The two shows have different remits but take place simultaneously from 15 -19 February, infusing the quays with the buzz of boating and hum of networking. Miami Yacht Show is located along Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, whilst the International Boat Show docks in Virginia Key, filling the exhibition space at Miami Marine Stadium.

Miami Yacht Show

A showcase of the latest designs and innovations in the world of superyachts, with boats on display from the world's best boat builders, Miami Yacht Show is the last word in luxury. A network of floating docks has been installed for the occasion of this in-water-only show to enhance the stand-out location along Indian Creek Waterway between the glitzy hotels of Miami Beach and Pinetree park. Hundreds of new and pre-owned vessels worth more than $1 billion afford buyers the chance to get on board and make the best decision for their maritime adventures.

VIP Experience:
