Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show 2026 information

The 2026 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show runs from 28 October–1 November 2026 across multiple waterfront show locations in Fort Lauderdale. Official hours are Wednesday 12:00–19:00; Thursday–Saturday 10:00–19:00; Sunday 10:00–17:00, covering five days from the Wednesday opening through Sunday afternoon.

The event is linked internally to the Fort Lauderdale destination guide and the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show company profile. Together they provide local and organiser context for visitors using this page as the 2026 show hub.

Official 2026 yacht and exhibitor directory

The organiser now links to the official 2026 show directory. Visitors should check the live directory for vessel listings, exhibitors and berth information, because participation and display arrangements may change ahead of opening day.

The show organiser has also published a 2026 selection of announced yachts and world debuts. These are confirmed announcements for specific vessels, not a substitute for the continuously updated full show directory.

Principal Fort Lauderdale show marinas

The show uses several major waterfront sites, and the database already contains verified profiles for key show marinas. These internal marina pages provide location-specific information alongside the broader Fort Lauderdale destination guide.

Official information

Show locations, access arrangements and the participant directory can be updated as FLIBS approaches. Check the official FLIBS show overview for the latest organiser information.

Confirmed Benetti participation

Benetti has announced a US introduction for its Oasis 36M project, with the 40-metre ALPHA WAVES and 34-metre SAMARA due to appear in the water. See Benetti Brings Oasis 36M Project to American Buyers at FLIBS 2026 for the official builder details. This confirmed single exhibitor announcement does not establish a complete show roster.
