The Nautic has changed its name, its venue, and its season. The Parisian boat show, long held in December at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, has become the Paris Nautic Show and is now hosted at the Parc des Expositions de Paris-Le Bourget, under the aegis of the Fédération des Industries Nautiques. Following a first edition under this new format, the organizer has announced the next event from November 25 to 29, 2026. The 2027 dates have not yet been released: the reference period remains late November, and it is wise to secure your stand locations early.

The event attracts both a passionate general public and industry professionals: shipyards, engine manufacturers, deck fittings, electronics, trailers, marinas and destinations, and paddle sports. The foot traffic is massive and family-oriented. A stand succeeds here if it directs the flow of visitors, protects the exhibited boats from damage, provides a trial or simulation area, and reserves a seated corner for taking orders.

These high-traffic scenographies are familiar territory for EXPACE, ranging from consumer exhibition stands to event installations. Highlights include: a stand showcasing an Alpine F1 car replica alongside filtration systems, a 400 m² Game Zone featuring simulators, and a temporary village consisting of two 30 m² modules with a virtual reality space.
