The Festival of Boating coincides with the boat show to provide a long weekend full of boating inspiration, education and a whole lot of fun for the Riviera Family.
Pre-registrations to receive the 2020 program for the much-anticipated Festival are now open. The extensive program offers a series of highly informative workshops covering everything from the basics of boat ownership to the latest technical information, and updates from our team of experts.
There’s our Exclusive Ladies Luncheon on Friday, a fun afternoon of fabulous food and wine in the sumptuous surrounds of the InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort. There’s also Riviera’s Exclusive Festival Party on Friday and Saturday evening that this year will be held aboard the YOT Club moored in the heart of our massive display.
All this, plus our largest display for 2020 at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, confirms the Festival of Boating 2020 as the ultimate boating event for the Riviera Family.
Entry to the educational workshops and social events requires online registration with your hull number for verification. You can pre-register now to receive notification of the official release of the 2020 program that will be released shortly.
