New expo promises best of marine leisure industry in Ireland

The swell of anticipation continues to grow in preparation for Ireland’s first international marine leisure & boat show, Ireland on the Water Expo.

Taking place at the Eikon Centre, Lisburn on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 March 2023, the show promises to be a celebration of the enthusiasm and passion for marine leisure throughout Ireland.

The spacious exhibition hall at the Eikon Centre will allow for a fantastic variety of stand and boat displays, making the show the perfect one-stop-shop for consumers, as well as a great day out for the entire family to enjoy.

Grace McDermott, Business Manager with Mara Media, the event organiser, has been delighted by the positive feedback from exhibitors and visitors, noting that companies from across the industry are eager to secure their spot at the show and have exciting plans in place for their displays.

“We are eager to ensure that Ireland on the Water Expo will be a fun and interactive day out for the entire family to enjoy – a place where they can find every product and service in the marine leisure sector under one roof, with a range of workshops, talks and demonstrations planned that will place a special emphasis on water safety.

“Many companies have already signed up, including Flood Marine, Atlantic Composite, Carrigaholt Sea Angling, Holy Mackerel and OS Marine, to name but a few, with many exhibitors planning to use the show as a platform to launch new products and services,” she said.

Having hosted the Irish Angling Show for 10 years, the organisers believe that the growing passion and investment in marine leisure in Ireland calls for a bigger and better show – a show that will rival any of the international boat shows.

From boating, angling, kayaking, sailing, surfing and open water swimming, to scuba diving and water adventure parks, the show promises to celebrate everything that is great about being out on the water.
