Qatar Boat Show Returns to Old Doha Port in November

Qatar Boat Show returns to Old Doha Port from 4 to 7 November 2026, placing international yacht brands and the region’s marine industry in a distinctive waterfront setting.

The third Qatar Boat Show is set for 4–7 November 2026 at Old Doha Port. The event gives yacht builders, marine suppliers and visitors a shared waterfront setting in one of the Gulf’s growing leisure boating markets.

A show shaped by its setting

Old Doha Port is more than a backdrop. Its marina and shoreside exhibition areas allow visitors to move between yachts on the water, smaller craft and equipment displays. The arrangement makes the show relevant to owners considering a larger yacht as well as to people entering boating for the first time.

The programme is expected to bring regional exhibitors together with international brands. For AUVEMARE readers, the question to watch is how builders adapt their offerings to the Gulf: outdoor living, warm-weather cruising and support after delivery all matter alongside a yacht’s appearance at the berth.

Why the Gulf matters

Boat shows increasingly work as meeting points for local infrastructure, builders and prospective owners. Doha’s event offers a view of that wider ecosystem, from marina life to the businesses that keep yachts in use. The final exhibitor and yacht line-up may change before opening day, so specific appearances should be checked against the organiser’s current list.
