DISPLAYING YOUR BOAT AT THE 2027 AUSTRALIAN WOODEN BOAT FESTIVAL
Displaying your wooden boat at the Southern Hemisphere’s largest celebration of maritime culture is truly something special. Vessels of every size, shape, and rig are welcome to lodge an expression of interest to display a wooden boat afloat or ashore.
Across four vibrant days, the festival offers a rare chance to share your craft with the public, connect with like-minded boating enthusiasts, and be part of a living, breathing showcase of seafaring tradition.
