Boats, design and innovation
The official format focuses on international boating, yachts and boats, design and innovation, with particular attention to electric, hybrid and hydrogen propulsion, environmental sustainability and Venice’s traditional boatbuilding culture.
What visitors can expect
The show format typically includes meetings, presentations, educational activities, exhibitions, installations, guided visits, water trials, regattas and areas devoted to technology, design and craft. The exact 2027 programme is not yet published, so individual activities from 2026 are not presented as confirmed.
