boot Düsseldorf 2026: what to take note of this year

As always, boot Düsseldorf is the exhibition that kicks off the year's yachting reveal. It's the world's largest indoor boat show, so superyachts are rarely on display here. However, in terms of the number of medium- and small-sized yachts, motorboats, sailboats, all kinds of yachting equipment, diving and water sports gear, Düsseldorf is unrivalled. 

This year, over 1,500 exhibitors from 68 countries will showcase their latest products, including over a thousand boats and yachts. Our selection below lists the world premieres that deserve special attention.
