AB OU T US Why the Barrie Boat Show is right for you: -- 5000+ visitors in its inaugural year from Barrie, Muskoka and the western GTA -- Social media, print and radio campaigns to target the region around Lake Simcoe and south to the 401 and west of the 404 - the Barrie Boat Show is 1 of 2 in-water events in Ontario targeting these consumers -- Brand identity for this show is ‘aspirational’, with a focus on the ‘boating lifestyle’, featuring a broad range of best-in-class fishing boats, sport boats, day cruisers and yachts, from 12 to 50 feet -- Being located at the Bayfield Basin and Heritage Park in the heart of Downtown Barrie brings a steady flow of foot traffic as well as boaters from around Lake Simcoe -- Hosted on the Father’s Day weekend, along with Barrie Jazz and Blues Festival running at Heritage Park, and adjacent to the new Meridian Place square, we give the whole family an experience to remember -- 52 in-water and 20 dryland exhibits offer variety and scale -- Reaching a new, affluent local market - we will draw the crowd from an exciting new lifestyle resort development on Lake Simcoe with +1000 new slips and many new boaters looking to buy for the first time

R E GU L ATION S All accepted Vendors will be emailed ‘Set-up’ and ‘Location Details’ along with any other site requirements, guidelines, or details in the days leading up to the event. All accepted Land Vendors will be assigned a specific 10’x10’ location, unless otherwise arranged. Those who choose to move without permission will be asked to return to their assigned vendor space. Those who refuse will not receive an invitation back next year. Vendors may start to set-up in their assigned locations after 9:00 am on Friday June 15th, 2018. Vendors with trailers are encouraged to be on site at 9:00 am, or earlier, on Friday June 15th, 2018 as it will be very difficult to manoeuvre your trailer once other Vendors have started setting up.

If you do require power it will be your personal responsibility to provide this, i.e. generator, etc. All tents must be secured. There will be an enforced fine if your tent is not secure as this is a safety issue. There will be no stakes driven into the ground when securing your tent.

But you are encouraged to secure and/or remove all merchandise and equipment from the site at the end of the day.
