Early bird ticket purchasers have the chance to win $10,000 ‘Boat Show Dollars’ to spend with an exhibitor at the show. Children under 16 years can enjoy the show for free when entering with a paying adult.

Whether you’re boating and/or fishing on Australia’s inland waters or prefer the open waters off the coast, SIBS promises everything for the avid boatie, fisher or sailor — with new vessels, new tackle and loads of technology designed to make your adventure on the water even more enjoyable.

A SIBS ticket gives entry to the exhibition in the International Convention Centre; the popular Fishing Masterclasses hosted by media personality and boating and fishing expert, Paul Burt; the Boating Safety Zone presented by the Show’s Partner in Safety — Transport for NSW; on-water displays at Cockle Bay; and the special sustainable sailing and paddling hub featuring one-on-one interviews with sailing and paddling identities hosted by the Sailor Girl herself, Nic Douglass.

SIBS presents a comprehensive range of boats assembled in one easy location. Whether you love the humble tinny or kayak, the latest design in popular trailer boats and fishing vessels or the most luxurious of ocean-going yachts and power cruisers, the show is the one place to find the latest gear and a tantalising range of vessels available today and special offers by the exhibitors.

And if you love fishing, rest assured, there is more than enough to hook you in. A massive 60 per cent of the show’s visitors express an interest in fishing, and the fishing masterclasses (included in the cost of entry) are always a massive hit. The presentations range from inland waterway fishing to the more adventurous offshore competitions, and feature videos, photos and stories to match. You may even get the chance to chat one-on-one with Show Ambassador, Rugby League great and fishing legend, Andrew ‘ET’ Ettingshausen.

Please note, tickets are only available online — there will not be a box office at the show.

SIBS 2023 is the place to be for anyone wanting guidance and deals from industry leaders, and with a large range of boats, fishing gear and boating accessories on display in the one spot, it is one not to miss.

Exhibitor space for the 2023 Sydney International Boat Show is also selling fast. Boating businesses and services are urged not to miss out on the opportunity to join with industry colleagues and be involved with this internationally renowned boat show.
