On March 13, 2020 the organizers of the BC Boat Show announced the new show dates have been scheduled for September 24 – 27, 2020. The 30th Annual BC Boat Show has been postponed in light of the ongoing global COVID-19 outbreak and recent announcement from the BC Ministry of Health banning all events over 250 people.

Known as the West Coast’s largest in-the-water boat show, the event was set to take place April 30 – May 3 at Port Sidney Marina in Sidney, BC. The show typically draws several thousand attendees with visitors from across British Columbia and Washington State.
