Set along the waterfront of Dubai Creek Marina, the Pre-Owned Boat Show brings the city’s boating community together for three days of activity and discovery. From 31 October to 2 November 2025, the marina will welcome visitors looking to buy, browse, or experience the event at their own pace.

This is a show for people who love life on the water. You can explore quality vessels, speak to industry professionals, and enjoy a weekend filled with sport, food, and music.

It’s the kind of event that turns a simple visit to the marina into a day to remember.

 

What to Expect This Year
The Pre-Owned Boat Show brings together top brokers, owners, and marine brands. You'll find a wide range of boats on display, from small family cruisers to larger leisure vessels. All boats are available for sale or viewing.

Visitors can speak directly with brokers and marina staff. They’ll walk you through the features, ownership process, and paperwork.

This year’s show also includes:

  • Live DJ performances each day
  • Street food stalls by the water
  • Family-friendly activities
  • Marine accessories and equipment for sale

Browse the docks, enjoy the food, or take in the views. The setup is easy to explore, with a casual, open-air vibe.

 

High-Energy Competitions on the Creek

The Pro Wakesurf Competition is one of the biggest draws of the Pre-Owned Boat Show. The event is hosted in collaboration with the World Wakesurfing Association. Professional riders from around the world will compete over two days on Dubai Creek.

Spectators can watch the action from the waterfront. The course is situated directly in front of the marina, offering clear views of every run. The competition runs throughout the weekend with set heats and finals. It brings a fast, energetic rhythm to the show and creates a strong atmosphere around the docks.

You can expect skilled riders, close finishes, and a crowd that knows the sport well.

 

Explore, Eat, Enjoy
The Pre-Owned Boat Show is not only about boats. It brings together food, music, and retail in one place. Along the marina walkway, you’ll find food trucks serving quick bites, drinks, and desserts. DJ sets run throughout the weekend to keep the atmosphere lively.

The retail zone gives visitors a chance to browse gear and accessories. You can explore marine equipment, apparel, and lifestyle products from regional and international brands. Everything is set up along the waterfront, making it easy to move from one area to the next.

 

Family-Friendly, All Weekend Long
The Pre-Owned Boat Show welcomes visitors of all ages. The show isn’t just for boat lovers; we’ve got a dedicated kids’ zone with fun activities to keep the little ones entertained while parents explore the show.

It’s a great weekend out for everyone!
