Seaquip – the Mediterranean Yacht and Marine Equipment Trade Fair – has announced further growth ahead of its first-ever 2026 edition, with the number of exhibitors reaching 128 and a series of new confirmed industry partnerships, supporters, and sponsors.
Organisers says it’s on a growth trajectory.
Set to take place from 4 to 6 March 2026 at Milan’s Rho Fiera exhibition centre, the fair aims to become a key international platform for the boating and marine equipment sectors.
At the beginning of the year, Seaquip saw at least 46 companies reserve a space, with 40 exhibitors confirmed. Now at 128, the event is in good standing to exceed its expectation of 150 exhibitors by March 2026.
In recent weeks, the organisers have confirmed several new exhibitors, including Mase Generators and Olmo, joining an expanding list of brands such as Besenzoni, HP Watermarkers, CMC Marine, Guidi, Mapei, Nuncas Marine, Osculati, Twin Disc, Vetus and Raymarine.
The event has also attracted growing participation from leading shipyards. Among Seaquip’s official supporters are major names, including Azimut-Benetti, Fincantierei, Bellini Nautica, Cantieri di Pisa, Centiere Rossini, B-Craft, Seven Stars, Tuccoli Marine, and Dracan Marine.
Institutional support for the event continues to strengthen, with endorsements from the Italian Trade Agency (ITA), Assonautica, and UCIF – ANIMA Confindustria Meccanica, recognising the event’s importance in promoting Italy’s marine equipment supply chain internationally.
The network of official partners has also expanded, including organisations such as WIN, ISES, PoliEFUN, YPY Italy, Cluster Natuic Catla, and YATED.
On the communications front, the event has appointed Paola Caccavallo as brand ambassador, with nearly 25 years of experience at Benetti, where she led global event and boat show operations. Caccavallo brings extensive industry insight and expertise to the role.
