If you genuinely want to compare a lot of boats back-to-back then no other show makes it more convenient than Boot Düsseldorf. It’s one of the biggest indoor boat shows in the world (if not the biggest) and it has everything from kayaks to superyachts.
Bar a few notable absences from the likes of Fairline, Windy, Sealine and Bavaria, most of the big names are expected to be there with several major world premieres due to be unveiled.
British builder Princess is taking the wraps off its all-new F58 for the first time while fellow rival Sunseeker will be revealing its facelifted 68 Manhattan.
Other notable world debuts include the Aquador 400HT, XO Explr 44, Solaris Power 60 Coupé, Virtue V10 Cabin and Maxim 43 Comfort. We also hear that French brand Prestige is planning to launch a brand new F-class model but it hasn’t yet confirmed what size it is or released any images.
How to get to Boot Düsseldorf 2025
There are plentiful low-cost flights into Düsseldorf airport from all over the UK. From there it’s a 10-minute taxi or 20 minutes on the bus to the Messe Centre for Boot Düsseldorf.
There’s a good selection of Boot Düsseldorf hotels, both near the Messe Centre itself or in the town centre near the Altestadt (old town), which is well worth visiting of an evening for a bratwurst and a lager (or two, or three).
N.B. In years gone by, your Boot Düsseldorf admission ticket got you free public transport around the city, but as of 2022, that is no longer the case – you will need to buy a separate ticket to visit the city centre.
