NY/ NJ International In-Water Boat Show

The New York New Jersey International Boat Show has resulted from the efforts of Liberty Event Management, LLC., organizers and promoters of the New York and New Jersey areas’ most ambitious indoor/outdoor, in-water boat show. The Show is now considered, by industry professionals and area attendees alike, one of the “must attend” shows on the North East boat show fall circuit.

The NY/NJ International Boat Show is located in Liberty Landing Marina, in Liberty State Park, in Jersey City, New Jersey. The show enjoys spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline and boasts as its home, a first class 600 slip marina, seconds off the Hudson River.

Liberty State Park affords the show an expansive, beautiful landscape on which to spread out the considerable “on-land” portions of the show. Visitors are treated to over a mile long scenic drive through the winding roads of the Park on the way into the marina, with the majestic site of the Statue of Liberty in the background all the while.

Over 40,000 square feet of clear span temporary buildings house the indoor sections of the show. No other in water show has indoor boat displays as well as outdoor land and water displays.

The event organizers pride themselves on thinking “outside the box.” Utilizing both this approach and the assets of the Park, the NY/NJ International Boat Show has always been an extraordinary event, offering much more to its attendees then the average boat show. In past years top notch musical entertainment such as Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, Dave Mason, and blues phenom Chaz DePaulo sponsored by Budweiser's True Music Concert Series have added extra flavor to the Show.

The NY/NJ Boat Show, entering it fourth year has grown to the size of shows that have been in existence for five times as many years. This outstanding growth rate is due to the professionalism of the staff, the considerable marketing dollars expended each year, and the phenomenal central location of the event.
