This year's Sydney Boat Show runs across four days at Sydney Showgrounds, from Thursday 30 July to Sunday 2 August 2026, with a programme built around boats, fishing, and on-water skills for visitors of all ages.
The show floor will feature hundreds of boats from exhibitors including Hunts Marine, Chapman Marine, Nautique, and Malibu. Among the highlights is Riviera's 4300 Sports Express Motor Yacht, the largest yacht at this year's event, alongside a line-up of Caribbean Yachts and a range of marine technology and fishing products.
Fishing takes up a significant share of the entertainment programme. Andrew Ettingshausen "ET" and Steve Starling "Starlo" will appear on the Anaconda Main Stage to demonstrate the latest gear and share tips for anglers at any level.
Michael "Cookie" Cooke will run live casting demonstrations across all four days, covering catch and release techniques.
Paul "Burty" Burt brings a cook's perspective to proceedings, with Catch 'N' Cook live demonstrations in the Boat Show Kitchen covering how to take a catch from the boat to the barbecue.
The Hot Tackle Store will stock rods, reels, lures, and accessories, and will host daily Tackle Talks sessions throughout the event.
The show is open 9:00am to 5:00pm Thursday 30 July through Saturday 1 August, and 9:00am to 4:00pm on Sunday 2 August. Tickets are available at sydneyboatshow.com.au.
