Marine showcase returns to UK’s Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show

The marine showcase is set to return to the Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show 2025, marking its fourth consecutive year at the NEC Birmingham.

Taking place from 18-23 February, the event provides a platform to explore entry-level watersports and marine products.

“The marine showcase brilliantly bridges the gap between land and water-based adventures, offering around 100,000-plus visitors an exciting chance to discover watersports equipment ranging from kayaks and canoes to inflatable boats and paddleboards,” says Lesley Robinson, CEO of British Marine. “This unique platform not only highlights the complementary nature of outdoor and on-the-water activities but also provides British Marine members and marine businesses with an invaluable opportunity to connect with new audiences and expand into a broader, like-minded market.”

British Marine has organised space for new and returning exhibitors. Robinson adds, “It was an easy decision to return to such a popular and successful show. We’re thrilled to welcome new exhibitors and continue supporting those who have been with us from the start. We hope everyone enjoys a successful and fruitful experience.”
