BOAT & FUN BERLIN: Kick-off for Germany's largest boat and leisure trade fair for water sports, fishing, outdoor and camping

From 28 November to 1 December, everything at the exhibition grounds around the radio tower will revolve around leisure activities on, around and in the water. Together with ANGLING WORLD BERLIN, AUTO CAMPING CARAVAN, OFFROAD BERLIN and TransporterTage Berlin, BOAT & FUN BERLIN is Germany's largest boat and leisure trade fair for water sports, fishing, outdoor and camping. You can visit all five trade fairs at once with one ticket.

Test the latest SUPs in the 300m² test pool, find out about tiny houses, motorhomes and houseboats or immerse yourself in the fascination of fishing - with over 850 international exhibitors and brands in 16 halls, BOAT & FUN Berlin, together with its associated trade fairs, offers a comprehensive range for water sports enthusiasts, campers and fans of outdoor activities. Visitors can find out about the latest trends, test products and buy them on the spot - whether SUP or luxury motor yacht, tiny house or motorhome, fun sports or fishing equipment. They can also talk to experts and meet the stars of the communities. The varied programme on four stages offers know-how and inspiration for beginners and advanced boaters alike.

Wide range of products for water sports fans

From dinghies to yachts, from technical accessories to new sails in the sailmaker centre - sailing fans will find what they are looking for in Hall 25 and hub27. In the Sailing & Lifestyle Forum, sailing professionals will talk about their adventures at sea and give tips on topics such as sailing techniques and safety training. Olympic 470 mixed sailor Anna Markfort will be on stage, as will windsurfing runner-up Sophia Meyer. Sailing instructor Jules Tolomello, who sailed solo on the Baltic Sea as a beginner, will talk about her adventure and single-handed and long-distance sailor Michael Ziese will report on his experiences ‘Alone in the ice in Greenland’. Captain Trixi Hübner also organises daily knot-tying workshops.

Motorboats - whether for fishing or for weekend excursions on the numerous lakes in the region - are also a major topic at BOAT & FUN BERLIN. Anyone looking for a well-kept second-hand boat is in the right place at the largest temporary marketplace for well-preserved boats and yachts (Hall 5.2b). Exclusive motor yachts can be found in Hall 27. From fishing kayaks, bellyboats and inflatable boats to cabin cruisers, console boats and sports motorboats - new this year is the fishing boat hall (Hall 2).

Test pools, sailing simulator and trickboard zone in the fun sports hall

A special highlight are the three test pools in Hall 25, where you can try out kayaks, canoes and SUPs directly in the water. The skimboard trickboard zone offers fun and action for anyone with swimwear. Those who want to stay dry can try their hand at a sailing simulator, balance boards and trick boards. DLRG Berlin will be demonstrating two rescue exercises daily at 12 noon and 3 pm in the test pool. On Saturday (30 November, 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.), DLRG Berlin will present a show competition on the subject of water rescue.

NeuesWohnen - Tiny Houses, Houseboats and Motorhomes

Whether travelling by motorhome, houseboat or minimalist living in a tiny house - the NeuesWohnen / Tiny House Village area in Hall 3.2b is all about alternative forms of living on and around the water.
