A new boat show is set to launch in Plymouth in 2025 with Plymouth Boat Fest being held at Plymouth Yacht Haven on 21 June 2025. 

Yacht Havens is set to host the highly anticipated Plymouth Boat Fest on 21 June at Plymouth Yacht Haven, bringing together maritime enthusiasts, families and the local community for a day of nautical fun and exploration, as well as showcasing the region’s maritime heritage and marine services. The festival will feature a variety of boats, yachts, innovative watercraft and traditional vessels. Attendees will have the opportunity to board the vessels, meet industry experts and learn about the latest advancements in boat technology and marine services.

The family-oriented event is also designed to entertain children with activities and live demonstrations. There will be local food and drink stalls, alongside entertainment ranging from live music to water sports displays.

Steve Cox, speaking about the inspiration behind the event, noted that the South West lacked a regional show, despite having a strong workforce and heritage: “We want to create a festival that blends community engagement with an impressive showcase of maritime offerings from companies based in and around Britain’s Ocean City, Plymouth.”

The event is free to attend, with parking and additional amenities available at the Yacht Haven and surrounding public car parks.

A number of exhibitors are already onboard including The Island Trust, Plymouth RNLI Lifeboats, Devon and Cornwall Police Divers, Hemisphere Rigging, The Paddlesport Company and Ancasta Boat Sales, as well as autonomous boat vessel demonstrations from Thales and Fugro.

“We invite marine companies from across the West Country to get in touch to showcase their boats, their products and their staff, and help make Plymouth Boat Fest a celebration for all-things boating,” Steve concluded.
