The Hutchwilco NZ Boat Show returns for 2024

The eagerly awaited Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show is returning with a revitalized vision from May 16th to 19th, 2024, at the Auckland Showgrounds. This year's event promises to merge tradition with innovation, featuring cutting-edge marine technologies to hands-on fishing seminars. As New Zealand’s premier boat show, it remains a hub for both marine enthusiasts and industry professionals.

The 2024 edition introduces the Shimano Fishing Pavilion, a highlight for angling aficionados, where they can immerse themselves in the latest fishing technologies and learn from New Zealand’s fishing elite, including Matt Watson and Tony Orton. These experts will be sharing their knowledge on targeting species like kingfish and sustainable fishing practices. Alongside this, the event will celebrate seafood and local produce at the new Kai Collective, promising a feast for the senses.

This year's show is also set to be a family affair with nautically-themed entertainment for all ages, including a giant inflatable pirate ship and a rodeo shark challenge. It’s a fantastic opportunity to explore the boating lifestyle, upgrade your equipment, and engage with the boating community.
