Athens International Boat Show

Date: 2 December 2026 – 6 December 2026

Location: Metropolitan Expo, Athens, Greece

The Athens International Boat Show runs from 2 to 6 December 2026 at Metropolitan Expo, the exhibition centre next to Athens International Airport. It is Greece's main indoor boat show, covering new boats, engines, electronics, chandlery and watersports equipment, with the country's dealers and charter operators well represented. Greece has one of the largest charter fleets in the world and an enormous population of small-boat owners spread across the islands, so the audience is broad: professional skippers, charter companies and weekend fishermen shop the same aisles. Opening hours are 15:00 to 21:00 on weekdays and 10:00 to 21:00 at the weekend, which lets working Athenians visit after office hours. Early December timing puts the show at the quiet end of the Greek season, when boats are ashore and owners are planning refits and purchases for spring. Exhibitor details are published through the organiser at athensboatshow.gr.
