About Newport International Boat Show
A U.S. boat show held in Newport, Rhode Island, showcasing global manufacturers' latest boats, with seminars and courses including powerboat and sailboat training.
Newport International Boat Show 2026
The Newport International Boat Show runs 17–20 September 2026 on the waterfront in Newport, Rhode Island.
An in-water boat show and a fixture of New England's sailing capital, the show fills Newport's downtown harbourfront with new sail and power boats shown in the water — where a boat should be evaluated — alongside marine equipment, electronics and services ashore.
Its September slot makes it the season-closing buying event for the Northeast; serious buyers use it to order for the following season.
