ABU DHABI, April 24 — ADNEC Group said the Abu Dhabi International Boat Show will return for its eighth edition from Nov. 19 to 22, 2026, with a new format at Marina Hall, ADNEC Centre Abu Dhabi.
The event will take place at the start of the Gulf marine season, a period ADNEC says offers exhibitors stronger access to active buyers as demand for marine products and services increases.
This year’s edition will feature luxury boats, marine technologies and on-water trials, alongside immersive experiences and the return of the Charter Show, aimed at giving brands more direct engagement with buyers.
ADNEC said the event continues to serve as a key regional platform for the leisure marine industry, attracting high-net-worth individuals, business leaders and serious buyers.
The 2026 edition will also host the region’s only dedicated Charter Show, providing a platform for yacht exhibitors and charter service providers, supported by an exclusive hospitality lounge and showcases from international charter and brokerage firms.
ADIBS is positioned by organisers as the region’s largest marine exhibition, covering the full leisure marine spectrum from superyachts and sports boats to marine products and services.
