The Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show has confirmed 10–14 February 2027 for its next edition, spread across four venues in Miami and Miami Beach. The organiser describes the event as covering everything from smaller boats to luxury yachts, with marine technology and equipment forming a substantial part of the programme.
The 2027 schedule opens at noon on Wednesday 10 February and continues through Sunday 14 February. The multi-site format is supported by water taxis and shuttle services, allowing the exhibition to separate different boating and yachting sectors while remaining part of one show.
The Miami Beach Convention Center is positioned as the main indoor hub for boats up to 49 feet, engine manufacturers, marine electronics and retail exhibitors. The Miami Beach Yacht Collection on Collins Avenue expands the on-water offer to motor yachts up to 125 feet alongside tenders, engines and marine accessories.
Sailor’s Cove at IGY Yacht Haven Grande Miami remains the sailing-focused venue, while Pride Park carries the experience and education programme. For the superyacht sector, the show therefore combines brokerage and yacht display activity with a much broader technical supply chain.
The organiser is inviting companies to submit press events and product debuts for the official 2027 media calendar, indicating that equipment and technology launches will again be part of the show’s news cycle. Engine, electronics and accessory suppliers are specifically identified within the event structure.
That creates a useful early-year platform for tracking propulsion, navigation, communications, onboard systems and tender developments before the Mediterranean show season begins. Individual launch claims will still require manufacturer confirmation as the exhibitor and media calendars develop.
The organiser says the 2026 edition attracted more than 100,000 visitors and featured more than 1,000 boats and brands. Those are historical figures rather than a forecast for 2027, but they indicate the commercial scale of the Miami event within the US marine market.
For Superyacht Guide, the next important milestones will be the confirmed yacht line-up, named brokerage displays and verified technical launches. The February dates place Miami among the first major international marine industry gatherings of 2027.
