Visitor registration is now open for Metstrade, scheduled Nov. 18–20, 2025 at RAI Amsterdam. Organizers say this will be the biggest show to date, with expanded halls, enhanced zones, over 1,600 exhibitors and a carefully curated content plan.

Metstrade is an international recreational boating event, designed to give attendees access to global market insights, collaborate with new partners, build connections with fellow professionals from over 135 countries and learn about the latest trends and innovations.

“This year’s expansion is not only about scale—it’s about responding to the complex needs of the global marine industry across each unique segment,” says Niels Klarenbeek, director of Metrstrade. “Metstrade brings the leisure marine industry together under one roof every year, consistently providing the answers to most pressing topics over three days. By gathering annually, we can react to the ever-changing market and anticipate future trends for growth opportunities.”

New to Metstrade in 2025 is a takeover of the RAI Amsterdam complex with enhanced zones, offering a “round the world” exploration of each hall in a continuous loop. With the U.S. and Canadian pavilions now located in Hall 12, a dedicated North America stage offers a focused program on market trends, policy updates and certification. It features dockside chats, expert-led sessions on standards and certification, and discussions on global trade, consumer trends and innovation.

A full list of additional events can be found on the Metstrade website. Online registration for the event is free of charge until Nov. 11, after which registrants will have to pay a fee of €90 ($78.10, as of Sept. 3).
