Beirut – 9 May 2017 – IFP Group (International Fairs and Promotions) announced today that it is organizing the 10th edition of Beirut Boat, under the patronage of His Excellency President Michel Aoun, at Marina Solidere, from 20 to 24 May 2017.
During a press conference held at Le Yacht Club, Mr. Edward Aoun, member of the board of directors of IFP Group, said the exhibition, blending luxury and lifestyle, is expected to attract more than 20,000 maritime enthusiasts, elite society figures, lifestyle gurus and VIPs.
Mr. Aoun also explained that this year’s show is extending its luxury motif beyond boating and is setting up specialized exhibition areas to capture the essence of high living in all its facets. The exhibition will include a ‘Luxury and Glamor Pavilion’ dedicated for showcasing refined jewelry and high-end products, as well as a ‘Deluxe Automobile Spotlight’ dedicated for showcasing luxurious cars.
The event will feature an exquisite superyacht display and will host some of the most renowned international yachting companies, superyacht builders and designers, nautical suppliers, brokerage houses and refit shipyards.
This year’s show is held in light of the great strides that Lebanon has made in recent years, in the luxury sphere, with the emergence of several high-end developments on the seafront along the shoreline. This reaffirms the country’s position as a hub for luxury, supported by a strong portfolio of high-end designer creations and international labels to compliment the wealth and cachet of privileged customers.
