General admission tickets are just $19 (plus booking fee) and will be available for purchase from 23 June. Children under 16 enter free when accompanied by a paying adult. Early bird tickets, purchased before 31 July, will also go into the draw to win $5,000 in 'Boat Show Dollars' to spend with an exhibitor at the Show.

Attendees simply need to show their event ticket to transport staff when boarding.

Boating Industry Association Ltd (BIA) President, Adam Smith said the new format show at Sydney Olympic Park was a huge decision for the team but one that has proved overwhelmingly popular.

"We opened exhibitor registrations just last month and the level of interest in this new format event has been phenomenal with indoor exhibition space now sold out. This has further confirmed we made the right decision to create this bespoke Show at Sydney Olympic Park. We are now looking at ways we can further expand the space to accommodate even more experiences and zones for more exhibitors and visitors to enjoy," explained Mr Smith.

"At the 2025 Sydney Boat Show visitors can look forward to 21,000 square metres of exhibition space packed to the brim with a range of exciting and revolutionary new offerings from local and internationally renowned marine and fishing brands. The Show will also feature a host of exciting national and global premieres and new product launches," Mr Smith said.
