Get ready for a unique experience! From October 23 to 27, the 26th Biograd Boat Show opens its doors and invites you to become part of the region’s largest nautical spectacle
Biograd Boat Show, the largest nautical show in Central and Eastern Europe, is celebrating its 26th anniversary this year after the record-breaking edition in 2023, when over 400 vessels up to 24 meters in length were exhibited.
EXTENSION TO BIOGRAD PROMENADE
This year’s boat show, which is to be held from October 23 to 27 in Marina Kornati in Biograd, filled all capacities four months in advance. Due to the great interest among the exhibitors, the organizer and host, Ilirija d.d., expanded the show in cooperation with the Zadar County Port Authority and the City of Biograd na Moru. An additional part of the event will be located in the newly renovated City Port of Biograd, where catamarans and luxury yachts over 24 meters will be exhibited.
This year, BBS is also expanding on dry land, so an additional outdoor exhibition space has been added in the service area of the northern marina. Hall E was also extended to accommodate a record number of exhibitors.
CROATIA LUXURY AND ADVENTURE TRAVEL SHOW
During the weekend, Hall D will be transformed for a new event called “Croatia Luxury and Adventure Travel Show”, which will bring together select exhibitors specializing in luxury and adventure travel. This event was designed to complement the increasingly popular offer of the luxury tourism segment, with an emphasis on premium quality and a unique experience of the destination.
ON-LINE TICKET SALE
In order to avoid long waits for admission, a new electronic sales system has been introduced that allows visitors to buy tickets online.
Biograd Boat Show is one of the most dynamic and lively boat shows in the world, with a calendar full of events that attracts numerous international visitors. The event owes its success to the unique formula devised by the organizer Ilirija d.d., combining its impressive Kornati Marina, Ilirija Resort hotels, catering facilities and entertainment facilities into an attractive “Boat Show Experience” package. When the sun goes down, the show stops and the fun begins with a legendary program that moves into the heart of the city. Combined with the intimate and spectacular surroundings of Biograd, this event provides a truly unique “boat show” experience.
COMBINATION OF BUSINESS AND PLEASURE
Biograd Boat Show is also a pioneer in innovative business activities, including the “8th Croatian Nautical Day Congress Program” under the auspices of the Croatian Chamber of Commerce, “Biograd B2B Networking” and “Croatia Charter Expo”, where more than 3,000 charter yachts are offered to charter agencies, along with the dominant, distinctive and traditional exhibition of vessels and equipment.
Thanks to the successful cooperation with the City of Biograd na Moru and the Zadar County Port Authority, this year’s fair has expanded to include the City Port of Biograd, allowing for the exhibition of catamarans and luxury yachts over 24 meters
