The St. Petersburg Power & Sailboat Show, the Gulf Coast’s largest boat show, will take place January 16-19, 2025, in beautiful St. Petersburg, Florida. Located at the Mahaffey Theater Yacht Basin, this year’s boat show will boast an impressive display of power boats and sailboats. In addition to the vessels displayed both in water and on land, a 40,000 square foot tent will host vendors displaying an array of marine accessories and equipment.
The St. Petersburg Power & Sailboat Show will have hundreds of vendors, daily educational seminars, and fishing clinics for children. Progressive and the Annapolis School of Seamanship will provide on-water boat training courses for those looking for a hands-on learning experience. New and brokerage boats will be on display, including center consoles, yachts, and sailboats, for event attendees interested in purchasing a vessel of their own.
The event will have catering by Proof of the Pudding, led by Corporate Executive Chef Vagn Nielsen. Cuisine will include a range of culinary delights from gyros to street tacos, gourmet burgers and more. The array of dining options will cater to all guests, including those with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets. Upscale beverages will include specialty cocktails, wine, and beer.
Proceeds from the 2025 St. Petersburg Power & Sailboat Show ticket sales will benefit Feeding Tampa Bay to support locals still recovering from the devastation of Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
