As most Exhibitors know, the Toronto Boat Show Team manages a high volume during the months leading up to the Largest Indoor Boat Show in North America. We are doing our very best to keep up with Exhibitor and Attendee emails & phone calls, as well as continuing to complete our tasks during this busy time. 

Thank you for your patience if you have been waiting for responses on anything. We will definitely get back to every single exhibitor that has contacted us, it might not be as fast as we’d like to due to volume. But we will!

We will continue to share information with you in the coming weeks leading up to the Show. Please note the Exhibitor Newsletter highlights some items to help you have a successful show. We strongly encourage everyone to review the Exhibitor Kit thoroughly, to ensure you are familiar with everything related to your participation.

It is unfortunate but a reality that fraudulent phone calls to exhibitors also happen with misleading information and suspicious inquires from individuals claiming to represent the Toronto Boat Show.

These annoying calls happen to almost every major trade and consumer show in North America.

We have recently been warned by an exhibitor that received a call about Move In information - dates, times, when the boats will be delivered and where the boat will be stored.

Please be mindful and cautious about giving information to a person who is not your contact at the show. If in doubt, please give us a call 905-951-0009 before providing any information.
