| Exhibition Overview |
The Middle East's luxury pleasure boat sector continues to expand dramatically
|
Set your course for Beirut Boat 2010, the Middle East’s favorite showcase of pleasure craft and related products for every budget. Scheduled for May 19-23, 2010, at La Marina Joseph Khoury in the Beirut suburb of Dbayyeh, the 6th International Boat and Super Yacht Show will take place with a dazzling new format – but the same VIPs and serious boating enthusiasts that our previous shows have consistently attracted. Beirut Boat 2010 will feature an overhauled line-up of activities and special events designed to put wind in both your sails and your sales by attracting consumers from every market segment.
Apart from a breathtaking display of boating and yachting magnificence, the show will also feature leading names in all things maritime, including Leisure and Water-Sports; Accessories, Components and Equipment; Marine Industry Associations; Brokerage and Financing Services; Designers and Builders of Marinas and Shipyards; and Marine Lifestyle and Luxury Accessories.
Stormy political waters and regional economic doldrums forced a suspension of the show from 2006 to 2009, so Beirut Boat 2010 will tap into years of pent-up demand. Industry statistics clearly point to accelerating growth for the boating sector across the region, and Lebanon’s status as the Eastern Mediterranean’s most inviting tourist destination can only help Beirut Boat 2010 to resume its role as the Middle East’s premier boating event. |
