From 13 to 16 November 2025, Sydney’s Darling Harbour will once again set the course for Australia’s boating community as the Sydney International On-Water Boat Show drops anchor for four days of world-class vessels, innovation and on-water luxury.
Presented by the Boating Industry Association Ltd (BIA) in partnership with Mulpha Events, the show continues its proud legacy of bringing together boat owners, enthusiasts and industry leaders in one of the country’s most iconic harbours.
Across the purpose-built marina in Cockle Bay, more than 150 vessels will be on display, from performance cruisers and blue water sailboats to luxury motor yachts and multihulls, complemented by the latest in propulsion systems, electronics, and onboard technology. Whether you’re eyeing your next upgrade, exploring design advancements, or meeting the experts behind the brands, this is where Australia’s boating future is charted.
Onshore, the atmosphere shifts into festival mode. Stretching through Palm Grove, Tumbalong Boulevard and Tumbalong Park, the event’s Discover Boating Festival Hub will be alive with product launches, interactive displays and gear demonstrations, alongside live entertainment, fine food, wine and a strong sense of boating camaraderie.
Take a break at the Wine Selectors Tasting Deck, where wine judge Will Figueira will host themed masterclasses, including Bon Voyage Bubbles, Waves of White, Captain’s Choice, Summer Reds and Sunset Sips, pairing standout wines with stories of craft and character.
BIA members are encouraged to take full advantage of this invaluable opportunity to showcase their businesses and products to a diverse and influential audience of consumers, investors, and industry leaders.
