The Fort Myers Boat Show returns November 12–15 for its 54th year, opening Southwest Florida’s 2026–27 boat show season along the Caloosahatchee River in downtown Fort Myers. The four-day event extends from the Fort Myers City Yacht Basin to Centennial Park and the Caloosa Sound Convention Center, with boats displayed both on land and in the water.
Fishing boats, center consoles, pontoons, deck boats, cruisers, and yachts are expected among the displays. Several exhibitors have already announced parts of their 2026 lineups. Walker’s Marine will show models from Axopar, Cobia, Pursuit, Regal, and Tiara Yachts, including new models making their first appearance at the show. Cape Coral-based WMF Watercraft & Marine is also expected to display a new 34-foot Sunsation CCX center console that is expected to be ready in time for the November event.
Visitors can move between dock displays, marine equipment and service exhibits, and fishing and boating seminars, while food and live music are planned in Centennial Park. Just beyond the park, the River District’s brick-lined streets have restaurants, cafés, galleries, and shops.
