The "Japan International Boat Show", annually hosted by the Japan Marine Industry Association (JMIA), is a leading event in boat building and water sports. It takes place at the Pacifico Yokohama Exhibition Center and Yokohama Bayside Marina, attracting both professional visitors and water sports enthusiasts alike. As a comprehensive platform, the show presents the latest trends and innovations in the maritime industry.
The focus is on sailboats, motor yachts, water sports equipment, and maritime services. Exhibitors showcase a wide range of products, including innovative boat and yacht models, marine accessories, licenses, and apparel. Special emphasis is placed on entertainment systems, interior design ideas for boats, and technical equipment.
The show, closely linked to Yokohama's and Japan's maritime culture, highlights the importance of water sports and the shipping industry in the region. Highlights include interactive programs such as the annual marine seminar, seminars for renewing and reissuing boat licenses, and TPSP seminars promoting safe navigation in Tokyo's harbors, bays, and rivers.
Visitors can expect a wide range of activities: from boat and yacht presentations to test drives, as well as interactive programs for children. Theme-specific areas like the Jet Village, Fishermen's Village, and Sailing Village offer in-depth insights into various aspects of water sports. There are dedicated areas specifically for disaster prevention and water safety.
These diverse offerings make the "Japan International Boat Show" a comprehensive experience that both informs and brings to life the practical aspects of maritime living and water sports.
The fair attracts a wide audience – from industry experts to water sports fans, including providers of boats, yachts, and water sports equipment. The venues – the modernly designed Pacifico Yokohama and the picturesque Yokohama Bayside Marina with direct water access – are easily accessible and offer a unique platform to discover the latest maritime trends and innovations.
The Japan International Boat Show takes place annually, and therefore for the 64th time previsibly in March 2025 in Yokohama.
