British Motor Yacht Show 2025

15th - 18th May 2025   -   Swanwick Marina, Southampton

Premier Marinas Swanwick welcomes back the British Motor Yacht Show as it showcases a wide range of production yachts and premium exhibitors.

Making a name for itself as a boutique style of boat show, the British Motor Yacht Show began as a predominantly British event, but now flourishes as an international affair catering to many niches.

One of the first British yachting events of the year, after the South Coast Boat Show in April or May, the British Motor Yacht Show excels at displaying a range of production yachts for sale in the sub-25 meter category, making this event ideal for prospective yacht owners who want to take their time and get all the answers they need in order to make an informed decision on which yacht to buy.
