North America’s largest indoor boat show returns to the Enercare Centre from January 18 – 27, 2019 with an impressive fleet of 1200 boats of various brands ranging from 6 ft. – 60 ft., as well as the latest in marine accessories to hit the marketplace for sale. Spanning more than a million square feet of show space, some of this year’s new programming highlights include the Toronto Indoor Wakeboard Championships featuring world class riders competing for cash prizes; fly fishing instruction in the world’s largest indoor lake; remote-controlled sailboats on the lake reminiscent of Central Park; and the Royal Canadian Air Force’s exhibit of a CH-146 Griffon Search and Rescue Helicopter, where visitors can meet the first responders, pilots and technicians who help keep our waters safe, and get a rare up-close tour inside the iconic yellow helicopter.
In its continued commitment to boater education, the Toronto Boat Show annually offers 250 free seminars and workshops throughout its 10-day event for visitors of all interests. New this year is the introduction of Women’s Day on Sunday, January 20, a full-day separate ticketed event that invites women to gain hands-on learning to further their boating skills and gain the confidence when it comes to boat ownership and taking the helm.
This year will mark the 20th anniversary of the Preview Day VIP Experience where visitors get advance access to shop the show while supporting the Toronto Boat Show’s boating charities. Preview Day has raised over $835,000 to-date, and takes place Friday, January 18 (2pm – 8pm).
Back by popular demand, the Toronto Boat Show will offer its $5 after 5pm Weekday single admission ticket, and free parking after 5pm on weekdays. For more information, go to www.torontoboatshow.com.
