2025 Exhibitor Information

For New Exhibitors: 2025 Space Application

Scam Alert - Exhibitors Beware!

It is unfortunate but a reality that fraudulent emails and calls reach Exhibitors with misleading information.


These annoying and frustrating emails and calls happen to almost every major trade and consumer show in North America. Please ignore them.


These parties claim to represent the Toronto Boat show but have NO relationship with the Toronto Boat Show.


We ask you to remain cautious and do not enter into agreements, contracts or release information to any callers asking:

  • to buy or sell database of consumers or other exhibitors
  • to help you book show hotels
  • ask you about the number of staff you have or how many staff members will be attending the show
  • for release of information about the number of boats and their logistics to and from the show
  • for credit card information for show guide listing or ads
