THAILAND: Key boat shows to merge for 2025

Organisers of the Thailand International Boat Show and Thailand Boat Festival have formed a strategic alliance to host a single boat show in Phuket from 9th-12th January 2025 at Phuket Yacht Haven. The event name will remain “Thailand International Boat Show” as the two organisers aim to leverage their complementary experience and scale up the 2025 show to be the biggest yet.

David Hayes, CEO of Thailand International Boat Show organisers JAND Events, said: “We know the industry only wants one show, and this strategic alliance with M Vision will deliver just that. Together, we aim to deliver the best possible boat and lifestyle show in 2025. M Vision’s experience organising large-scale Thai consumer events complements our boat show and luxury events experience, and while we look to further grow international visitors we will also build on our Thai visitor success this year and supercharge our efforts for 2025.”
Businesses and partners of the Thailand Boat Festival will join the line-up of boat and luxury brands from around the world that are already confirmed participants for the 2025 Thailand International Boat Show.
Speaking of the alliance, Opas Cherdpunt, CEO of M Vision Public Company Limited, commented: “Aligning our efforts with the Thailand International Boat Show makes a lot of sense for the industry and hosting it at Phuket Yacht Haven is the ideal location. This gives us more space in the water and opportunities to add more lifestyle displays and activities on land. And with direct access to Phang Nga Bay, boat exhibitors have the possibility to take potential buyers on sea trials during the show.”
The second annual Thailand Yachting Conference will also take place during the event, along with the yachting awards and gala dinner.
