Spain: The Barcelona Boat Show is gearing up for its 53rd event and promises style

If you like boating, you will love Barcelona’s Boat Show; this year it hosts its 53rd event and nautical enthusiasts await eagerly.

The Barcelona International Boat Show is gearing up for its 53rd event which will take place from October 15th to 19th 2014.

Organised by Fira de Barcelona with the collaboration of the Asociación Nacional de Empresas Náuticas, Anen, this major nautical sports and recreation trade fair will again host all exhibits and activities in Port Vell.
For the Director of the Barcelona Boat Show, Jordi Freixas”the latest data from the recreational boat market in Spain show that the crisis is touching rock bottom that will give way to a slow recovery of demand. We have to be prudent but we believe that this edition can mark a turning point in sector sales. In any case, we will continue to dedicate our efforts to attracting buyers from more dynamic economies, such as Germany, France and Russia, and also foreign residents in our country”.

According to the Secretary General of Anen, Carlos Sanlorenzo,”the event has to evolve in line with new nautical trends that are prevailing in leading European trade shows. In this sense, one of the factors to be considered is to try not to overlap with other international shows.

With regard to expectations, the nautical market’s performance in February, with a 5% growth, is positive but some time will have to pass before domestic demand is stronger and therefore the show has to focus on international markets”
