Schroders London Boat Show

Information about the show

Put some sparkle into your life this winter and head down to the Schroders London Boat Show, in association with the Daily Telegraph, at ExCeL in London’s docklands from 8-18 January 2004. Celebrating its 50th anniversary and its brand new home, the show promises to be the biggest and best yet.
View the spectacular array of world-class boats, ranging from luxury dream yachts to affordable dinghies. With nearly 800 exhibitors, visitors can find out the latest on offer from holidays, kit and gadgets in the worlds of sailing, power boating, inland waterways, windsurfing and canoeing and watch the first ever UK Indoor Windsurfing Championships on the purpose-built pool.

With a new watersports village, Waterscape.com’s new inland waterway attraction Feature and the pool providing the opportunity to try-a-boat, there is something for everyone.

You can also get £2 off the ticket price by phoning the booking line on 0115 912 9111 and quoting The Daily Sail.

If you are travelling by public transport, ExCeL has it's own dedicated DLR station - Custom House for ExCeL, which will take you straight to the door via a covered walkway. The recommended route to ExCeL is to take the Jubilee Line to Canning Town, where you can change for the 2-stop DLR journey to Custom House. If you prefer to travel by car, there is a park and ride close by and the venue is directly linked to the North Circular (A406), M11, A13, A20 and M25.
