AWESOME PLACE

Great place to get great deals on boating accessories and to see the vast selection of new boats if you are in the market for one, also sombras and show are great, good place to spend the day with friends and family been going every year for the last 4 years or basically since I bought my boat. Would recommend to anyone

Inspiration

When I went to the show in 2019, I was not a not owner. I was planning to at some point. But was not in the radar at that time. After walking around the show, talking to vendors and various marinas, I knew that's what I wanted to do. So, a short time after I started looking. I am now a proud owner of a 30' Doral and season resident at a wonderful marina not far from my residence. The show was a total inspiration. I look forward to 2020's show. With more ways to personalize my vessel and my new lifestyle. Darcy

Worth the trip

It is a practical event because you can get all your information and/or products in one place. We took our young kids and they were entertained with the food and events for them - they especially enjoyed trying fishing for the first time. While there were often long lines to view the sailboats we wanted to see, it was manageable.

Big dreams

Love going to the large boat section and discovering all the amazing boats on display. Wow. Then the Marketplace where you can get exciting products boating related, from accessories to apparel. We end up winding down the day at the cottage living area and the indoor lake. This show is laid out extremely well too. All similar vendors are placed within close proximity to each other. We purchased our dream boat here 17 years ago and still love returning for what feels like a mini vacation as well as tips, contacts and merchandise to keep our boat always in "ship shape". Cant wait to go back for the 18th time!

Something to look forward to.

It is a time of year that gets things rolling for the coming season. It breaks up the time between the dreaded winterization and the exciting spring launch. Be warned though, it’s hard not buy something ;). Food and drink prices along with exorbitant parking prices, while typical of Toronto, are the only things to detract from the experience. Otherwise, there is something for everyone.

Summer dreams

An annual escape from the winter blahs, the TBS makes us forget the weather and takes us to our favourite summer passion. Wouldn’t survive winter without it.

2019 Toronto Boat Show

My husband and I attended the boat show preview night last year. We particularly enjoyed watching the water ski practice on the indoor lake. It was cool to see the wide variety of boats to meet a range of boating needs. Lots of experts were available to answer questions. It was a fun evening.

Toronto Boat Show

Every year my wife and I travel down to Toronto to the annual boat show. We make a day out of it. We love to see the new boats and new features that the boat manufacturers have come up with. It is great to compare our boat and the newer models and see what upgrades we could make to ours. We also love the market place for boat products. Its nice to see the products in person to make a informed decision to purchase them or not. Much better then looking on line and ordering. Not to mention the discounts that are applied at the show. We always go with a list of items to check out and possibly purchase directly at the show. This year we moved into a new waterfront home and wanted a dock system. We had researched many dock companies prior to the show but it was not until we attended the show and actually saw the docks and spoke with the vendors that we purchased them. We also were in the market for a new dinghy and davit system for out boat. Once again the boat show came through and we were once again able to view these items in person as well as speaking with vendors to make an informed decision. The discounts we received were worth the trip alone! We further try to attend the show when there are lectures that we are interested in. We have heard many great lectures over the years and learned a lot in the process. All in all, the Toronto Boat show is a something that we look forward to every year and this year will be no different. I highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in boating. From the fisherman to the yachtsman, it has everything for everyone!
