50th Annual Newport Boat Show – Rhode Island

If You Harbor a Passion for Boating, There’s Only One Place to Be!
When: September 17 – 20, 2020
Where: Downtown Newport, Rhode Island
The Newport International Boat Show is one of the most popular boat shows in the Northeast. The event stretches over thirteen acres along Newport’s downtown waterfront with powerboats, sailboats, and other marine products, services, and accessories. This is a bucket list event for the nautical enthusiast, especially if you are in the market for a new boat or to do research for your future nautical lifestyle. Take advantage of the special preview day – September 17th. There is typically less traffic on the docks, which allows for more quality time with dealers and representatives.
