Auckland Boat Show 2027

Date: 1 April 2027 – 4 April 2027

Location: Viaduct Events Centre and Jellicoe Harbour, Auckland, New Zealand

The Auckland Boat Show returns 1 to 4 April 2027, based at the Viaduct Events Centre and spreading across Jellicoe Harbour and Wynyard Wharf in the city's waterfront precinct. Run by NZ Marine, the industry association, since 1999, it is New Zealand's largest on-water boat show and traditionally opens the Australasian boat show season. Around 200 marine businesses take part, with launches, yachts and trailer boats berthed in the harbour alongside indoor exhibits covering engines, electronics, chandlery and services. The on-water format matters: buyers can step aboard rather than peer over a stand, and New Zealand builders use the show for new model releases. Auckland's marine industry punches well above the country's size, from superyacht refit yards to production boatbuilders, and this is its annual shop window. The Viaduct location puts the whole event within walking distance of downtown.
