Hosted by the Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company (ADNEC) and organised by Capital Events, part of ADNEC group, ADIBS was the UAE’s first boat show in 2021. This year’s incredible range of marine activities also included boat chartering and affordable boating for the first time in the event’s history.

Demonstrating the future direction of the exhibition industry in the post COVID-19 recovery phase, ADNEC have already successfully held and organised mega events with the highest safety protocols, including IDEX and NAVDEX 2021 and the Abu Dhabi International Book Fair, paving the way for the return of major exhibitions in the second half of the year. This affirms ADNEC’s readiness and ability to host ADIBS in accordance to the same standards that contribute in maintaining the health and safety of all concerned parties.

For marine lovers across Abu Dhabi and the UAE, it is the perfect place to explore the waters and experience a diversity of leisure, fishing, and other marine craft. Additionally, ADIBS provides a unique platform for marine companies to seamlessly conduct business and launch new products. Finally, the exhibition allows visitors the chance to learn about the rich marine heritage of Abu Dhabi, alongside participation in different activities in addition to exploring the UAE pavilion, which this year will see a new look and feel.”

Al Mansouri added: “We are pleased with the list of partners and sponsors of this year’s event, which includes Abu Dhabi Maritime, the strategic partner of the event, the diamond sponsor Gulf Craft, and the platinum sponsor of the event, the Captain Club for yacht and boat trips.  This year’s edition witnesses the participation of more than 80 exhibitors and this year we have participation from many different entities for the first time including; Abu Dhabi Ports Company (ADPC), Abu Dhabi Maritime, Al Fajer Marine LLC, Belassi GmbH, and Gulf Craft who will display Silvercraft boats and Oryx Boats.
