International boat show - Grand Pavois

With 80,000 visitors expected over 6 days, 800 international brands, 750 boats on display including 300 afloat, the Grand Pavois La Rochelle is one of the Top 5 international afloat boat shows. Sea trials, world previews, meetings with professionals...

Created in 1973 by Grand Pavois Organisation, the show is a major event in the nautical calendar, and a must for all enthusiasts and professionals in the industry.

Every year, a large number of brands take advantage of the event to present their new products and related commercial offers to the general public, as well as to their French and European distributors.

Themed areas for every passion!
The show features several specific areas: boats afloat, boats afloat, equipment halls, services, inflatables and RIBs... as well as themed villages, which over the years have become veritable benchmarks.

New for 2024: Le Grand Pavois Beach
The area dedicated to Gliding and Light Sailing will benefit from a real evolution-revolution in 2024, to highlight the incredible opportunity of having direct access to the sea with your feet in the sand. Le Grand Pavois La Rochelle is one of the only shows in the world to have such direct access to the sea, and we want our many visitors to benefit from this.
