February 14-17, 2019 will see the return of the Central New York Boat Show in Syracuse, NY. This bi-annual nautical event will showcase over 500 brand-new models of both power and sailboats. The impressive collection of vessels includes cruisers, sports boats, pontoon boats, and personal watercraft, representing nearly all facets of the boating industry.
The largest display of boats in all of Upstate New York is found inside three sizable buildings within the New York State Fairgrounds, located on 581 State Fair Boulevard in Syracuse. The Fairgrounds, in addition to the yearly Great New York State Fair, host hundreds of non-fair attractions, drawing nearly one million people annually. The selection will be found inside the Center of Progress Building, the Horticulture Building, and the enormous Exhibit Center Building; there will be over 250,000 square feet of presentation space for the wide range of boats the show has to offer.
Patrons of the event will have access to the display starting Thursday, February 14, at 1:00 p.m. and until 9:00 p.m. Those hours will remain in place for Friday the 16th but will extend to 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. for Saturday the 16th, and from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Sunday the 17th.
