The Old Doha Port will host the first edition of the Qatar Boat Show 2024 next November, with the aim of supporting and enriching the maritime sectors and commercial industries, enhancing economic growth and supporting tourism in the country by presenting the best maritime innovations and entertainment events.
The Qatar Boat Show is expected to be a prominent event showcasing the latest marine technology innovations, entertainment facilities and luxury amenities, highlighting Qatar’s position as a leading maritime destination.

Qatar’s maritime sector has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from a haven for traditional fishing to a vibrant hub for recreational and luxury marine activities. Historically known for its fishing and pearl trade, the country’s strategic location, favorable climate and world-class marinas have helped it cement its position in the global maritime community.
This transformation, supported by a growing population, increasing number of beachfront properties and a growing culture of luxury yachting, is paving the way for the much-anticipated Qatar Boat Show. As one of the world’s most exclusive and luxurious countries, Qatar is an exceptional marine market that attracts both global brands and marine enthusiasts alike. Hosted in a country that combines the best of both worlds with a growing interest in marine leisure activities, the Qatar Boat Show is a prominent event that showcases the strengths of Qatar’s marine sector.
Qatar’s port infrastructure has undergone a major development, including several major marinas, including Ronautica Middle East, Aura Group, Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara, Leisure and Resorts Company, and the Old Doha Port. A historical landmark that has been revived as a leading maritime destination, the Old Doha Port blends history and culture with luxury standards, and includes the only luxury yacht marina in the State of Qatar, in addition to 50 berthing spots, more than 100 retail outlets and 50 restaurants and cafes, making it a distinctive and vibrant haven.
