Back to Where It All Began

Thailand Boat Festival is more than a boat show — it's a catalyst for Thailand's Festival Economy strategy, positioning the kingdom as the Yacht Hub of Asia.

Now in its 3rd edition, TBF 2027 brings together world-class yacht brands, luxury lifestyle exhibitors, supercars, and high-net-worth individuals from across Asia-Pacific and beyond.

From sea trials and sunset champagne cruises to gala evenings under the Phuket sky — this is where deals are made and dreams set sail.
