BoatLife Live is the first Boat Show to kick off the season and get ready to get back on the water in 2022. The brand-new show runs 17 – 20 February at the NEC in the heart of the midlands and promises to be a great shop window to all things boating.
From inland boats to RIBS to powerboats and paddleboards it has something for everyone. Whether you’re a first-time or experienced boater, this event is for you and the family.
With a replica traditional river-side pub and Mediterranean bar, there will be plenty of places to meet old friends and make new ones while listening to live music and enjoying the energetic atmosphere.
Head to the Live Stage to hear talks from boating faces you know and love and visit the Inland Zone and Virtual Reality feature to get your thrill of the day. The show is curated to give the whole family a day out, celebrate the boating lifestyle, and bring people together.
At the Inland Zone, there will be a broad range of exhibitors to grab your attention, from boats to holidays to houseboats and equipment companies. Brands include ABC Leisure, Tingdene, Richardson’s, Aquaduct Marinas and Castle Marinas.
There are over ten hotels onsite and a range of restaurants to suit your budget. You can even make a weekend of it with the onsite shopping mall and cinema.
NEC Birmingham is so easy to get to by car, plane or train, only being a short walk from the station. With over 16,000 car parking spaces, you’ll have no issue parking either.
