The highly anticipated Nautic en Seine 2025 show, which was to take place between the Legrand port in Boulogne-Billancourt and the Île de Monsieur in Sèvres, will ultimately not be held this year... The FIN judged that the current market circumstances, combined with structural constraints, made this decision unavoidable despite rigorous preparation. Despite its efforts and rigorous preparation, FIN deemed it necessary to make this difficult decision given the current market circumstances coupled with operational constraints. Scheduled for April, this event was supposed to take over from the Paris Boat Show, whose last edition was held at Porte de Versailles in 2022. This news announced on November 19, 2024 by the Fédération des Industries Nautiques (FIN) has caused deep emotion within the nautical industry and left a void in the boating community! The president of the FIN salons commission, Fabrice Lacoume, explained that the pre-marketing phase no longer allowed for the show to be developed calmly. Jean-Paul Chapeleau, president of FIN, expressed his regret but emphasized that this decision will allow reflection on other solutions.FIN abandons its nautical show project
Organizing a nautical show of this scale is no small feat.
The logistical and organizational challenges related to holding Nautic en Seine 2025 certainly proved difficult to overcome, pushing the organizers to take the decision to cancel this edition.
The 2025 edition promised much more than just a simple exhibition of boats and equipment and was intended to mark a break from the past, pushing the limits of innovation while highlighting revolutionary projects in the nautical sector.
It was part of a broader reinvention. The organizers, under the direction of the show’s president, aimed to transform this emblematic event into a true crossroads of exchanges between professionals and enthusiasts.
The vision was clear: to create a space where tradition and modernity merge to define the future of the boating market. Such an evolution would have propelled the show to the rank of essential global events.
The news of the cancellation of Nautic en Seine 2025 has probably disappointed many boating enthusiasts, exhibitors, partners, and visitors, but hope is not lost!
This emblematic event, eagerly awaited every year, was more than just a gathering of professionals and individuals passionate about the sea, boats, and adventures on the water.
For many, Nautic en Seine was the occasion to discover the latest innovations, interact with experts, and feed their passion.
However, even in the absence of this show, the nautical spirit continues to vibrate within a close-knit community where everyone shares their experiences, cherished memories, knowledge, advice, or future projects.
This spirit of exchange and friendliness has not extinguished the spark that drives the ambitions of those who dream of sailing and those fascinated by marine horizons.
The magic of boating lies in its ability to inspire, to offer moments of freedom and connection with nature. Nautical dreams do not stop and are nourished by the promise of an even stronger return.
Let’s hope that the Nautic en Seine returns, bringing with it a new wave of inspiration and innovation for all pleasure boaters, sailors, builders, and future navigators who dream of setting sails toward a brighter future.
Even if challenges and uncertainties have led to this outcome, let us keep hope for boating’s future.
The nautical sector remains dynamic and innovative. While Nautic en Seine stays docked, many equally interesting events are organized throughout the year and are expected to continue in 2025. These international, local, or regional shows allow discovering actors in boating, participating in convivial events, and meeting other enthusiasts.
Do not hesitate to consult the various detailed online calendars, by country, by region, by date or by theme to find the show near you or the one that interests you most.
