Liverpool Boat Show

Plans for an international boat show in Liverpool were officially announced today.

The first Liverpool Boat Show will be held at Albert Dock, April 29 to May 8 2011, and will be organised by Marine Industry Events Ltd.

Organisations backing the event include Liverpool City Council, the Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA), Liverpool Vision, British Waterways, Albert Dock Liverpool, The Mersey Partnership and the new Liverpool Waterfront Partnership.

Sue Grindrod, chairman of Albert Dock Liverpool, said: ‘The Albert Dock is the most visited multi-user attraction in the UK outside of London with high profile attractions such as Tate Liverpool, Maritime Museum and International Slavery Museum as well as The Beatles Story. With its mix of bars and restaurants, large and small attractions, the Albert Dock offers something for everyone and is the ideal location for an event of this calibre. We look forward to welcoming exhibitors, their clients and visitors to Liverpool.’
