According to show organisers, there were in
excess of 25,000 visitors at this year's event, which
took up nearly 15,000 sqm of exhibition space at the Dubai International Marine Club.
The on-water pontoon area had been specially
expanded to accommodate increased demand
from exhibitors, with 120 boats on-water throughout the event.
The event also coincided with the 2nd Gulf Boating
Conference. Entitled 'Vision for the Future', the
conference covered topics such as new marina and
waterside developments, and the potential for
imported and locally manufactured boats.
The Dubai International Boat Show is organised by
the Dubai World Trade Centre.
