New Zealand's Waikato Boat Show- Building up the boating business

Waikato Boat, Fishing & Leisure Show SW

In New Zealand, the http://www.waikatoboatshow.co.nz/!Waikato_Boat,_Fishing_&_Leisure_Show is the only marine exhibition in the Waikato and Bay of Plenty area. While it might be a long way to go unless you live in New Zealand, the event, to be held on the 15-17 of October 2010, is on track for another successful year. Emerging out of an economic strain with the rest of the world, the 2010 event is set to be paramount in paving the year ahead for the marine industry.

The joint venture (between the Marine Industry Association and Mystery Creek Events Centre) is committed to providing the Waikato with the best in the marine industry to the thousands of visitors to the event. Being the only boating and fishing show in the Waikato ensures the event will attract a strong audience of boating and fishing enthusiasts.

Last year, the three day event attracted a record number of visitors with just under 13,000 through the gate; the highest turnout since 2004. Organisers are dedicated to continuing the growth of the event and this year is sure to create a buzz in the boating and fishing industries. Not only is the exhibition the best place to grab a great deal, there are plenty of industry developments and demonstrations to capture interest.

If you're in the yachting industry and have a market to take advantage of it, online applications for securing sites at the Waikato Boating, Fishing and Leisure Show can be found on www.waikatoboatshow.co.nz and site allocation begins on the ninth of July 2010.

For further enquiries about exhibiting at the only marine event in the Waikato area please contact the WBF&LS team at Mystery Creek Events Centre on 07 843 4497 or email info@waikatoboatshow.co.nz.

The Waikato Boat, Fishing & Leisure Show is endorsed by the Marine Industry Association, and proudly sponsored by Radio Sport and Radio Hauraki.
