Ahoi Boating friends,
Full steam ahead into the new year? Absolutely! For us, the start of 2025 marks the beginning of another year full of highlights: From the summer lifestyle and test event in the Havelauen of Werder (Havel) to the grand season finale of the watersports community at the exhibition halls – our events in Europe’s largest inland and watersports region are set to excite once again.
But before we dive into the future, let’s take a moment to look back and say thank you:
Watersports, outdoor adventures, camping fun – under the Funkturm in Berlin, it was all about leisure activities on, in, and by the water at the end of November. With around 50,000 visitors, more than 850 international exhibitors and brands, and an impressive range of boats, campers, caravans, fishing gear, fun sports, and outdoor equipment, BOOT & FUN BERLIN 2024 was a resounding success. And it’s not just us saying so: Early results from our visitor survey show that over 90% of visitors had a good to excellent overall impression of the event. Nearly half of those surveyed were first-time visitors – and nine out of ten plan to return in 2025. This makes us incredibly proud!
Thank you for being part of this special event and our watersports year!
