Scheduled to run from 21-29 January, the 2023 Boot Dusseldorf show will feature the inaugural edition of the Boot Dive Awards.
Long associated with the popular dive expo, Boot Dusseldorf has taken a further step to cement its support for the sport, and indeed the nautical industry, by launching a new award ceremony dedicated to the recognition of those who have contributed to the diving scene and way of life.
Created in collaboration between German-speaking media including VDSTsporttaucher and TAUCHEN, the Boot Dive Awards are to be presented annually in conjunction with the main show and cover five categories which are; Personality, Destination, Innovation, Product and Climate.
It will show the development in the diving sector and will bring diving scenery to the public.
