New Entrance, Show Layout & Features

Our 54th show is a step up from everything you’ve seen before: the main entrance location links the show with Southampton’s City Centre and WestQuay shopping centre, with even easier access to Britain’s biggest and best festival of boating from the heart of the city. From there, you will be able to amble along the dramatic backdrop of Southampton’s historic city walls, while you explore our zones on your way to Mayflower Park and our massive marina. The exciting features include:

Mayflower Park & the Marina  

Our zones lead the way to Mayflower Park and Europe’s largest purpose-built marina. With hundreds of equipment, services, power and sail boats on show, our Foredeck Stage, Guinness Bar, Ocean Hall and Borrow a Boat Quarterdeck Bar & Restaurant – Mayflower Park and our stunning marina remain the heart of the Southampton International Boat Show. Set against the marina backdrop and with waterside seating, it is the perfect place to soak up the show’s atmosphere.
