About the event
What is Abu Dhabi Boat Show?
ADIBS showcases superyachts, sports boats, fishing boats, marine equipment and water-sports products, with on-water trials and a charter show. It attracts high-net-worth buyers and marine businesses at the start of the Gulf boating season. The seventh edition ran from 20 to 23 November 2025 and the 2026 edition is set for 19 to 22 November, so November 2027 is expected.
The 2025 edition hosted 1,068 exhibitors and brands from 56 countries across 85,000 square metres, with 36 product launches. Buyers compare vessels on the spot, so high-quality yacht walkthroughs, drone footage and launch content help exhibitors reach serious buyers who could not attend and keep conversations going after the show.
