boot 2027 runs January 23 to 31, 2027 at Messe Dusseldorf: around 1,500 exhibitors across 16 halls, from dinghies to superyachts, plus diving, surfing, fishing and marine equipment. Messebau Köln und Düsseldorf (German for exhibition stand construction Cologne and Dusseldorf) is operated by Standbuilder International, Inc.; your boot trade show booth is planned and built by CBS Neospace GmbH of Ratingen, ISO 9001:2015 certified, about eight kilometers (five miles) from the fairgrounds.

What makes a boot booth different

  • Nine days of wear. boot runs longer than almost any other fair. Floors, surfaces and furniture must be specified for endurance; robust execution pays off twice here.
  • Heavy, bulky exhibits. Boats and equipment need planned move-in routes, floor loads and crane work under Messe Dusseldorf’s regulations; with us that lives in the engineering plan, not in improvisation.
  • Emotion sells. boot is a consumer and trade show at once. Light, pedestals and clear sightlines stage the exhibit; the booth itself stays calm.
