Each day the sunset marks the end of the exhibits, and the beginning of an on-site evening program offering great food and entertainment, and continuing into the town centre until the late hours, all within a short walk.  We call it the “Boat Show Experience”, and it has resulted in a strong reputation for “business to business networking”, as well as many affluent visitors from central Europe that make a holiday of the event.

As the owner of the exhibition, accommodation, and entertainment facilities, Ilirija d.d. has been able to create a first class Boat Show Experience by offering exhibitors and visitors unparalleled value through very reasonable pricing.
