The much-loved Creekside destination is all set to host the 9th annual Dubai Pre-Owned Boat Show, with a number of exciting activities, games and more
The Dubai Pre-Owned Boat Show returns to the Dubai Creek Marina from 8th – 10th November 2018, with an all-new inflatable obstacle course, ever-famous Lobster Fest, and a number of leisure activities on offer.
The 2018 event promises both boat buyers and families an eventful three-days at the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club. This year’s edition guarantees the best marine opportunities for boat buyers and sellers, alongside numerous fitness and leisure activities for the whole family, including a dedicated kids’ zone.
The perfect family friendly destination will kick off at 2pm on Thursday, 8th November, with the return of the much-loved Lobster Fest. Friday, 9th and Saturday, 10th will be filled with culinary delights and live entertainment from 12pm onwards. Parents with younger kids can enjoy the free and fun-loving children’s activities, including face painting, arts and craft workshops, soft play areas and bouncy castles, in addition to a fully supervised mini zoo.
New to the show this year is the one-of-a-kind inflatathon, perfectly suitable for bigger children who are minimum 100cm in height, as well as adults. The unique four piece inflatable obstacle course presents the perfect challenge, allowing participants to jump, crawl and slide their way through to the end.
Guests need to complete two laps, and the fastest participant on each day will receive a raffle ticket that gives them the chance to win major prizes. Up for grabs over the weekend are dining vouchers, a free pass to the inflatathon event in Safa Park in late November, as well as the grand prize of two return economy flight tickets to anywhere in the world! In addition, each guest who spends AED 100 at the Lobster Fest will also be eligible for raffle draw tickets, and one step closer to those flights.
For those who fancy a lovely cruise along the Dubai Creek, RTA provides a fleet of water taxis and abras throughout the event. The not-to-be-missed main waterfront races on each day – the Dubai Creek Dragon Boat races on Friday and Stand Up Paddle races organised by Surf House on Saturday – are perfect for those looking for a bit of active weekend fun. Pre-registration is required.
Saturday marks the last day of the event, but surely not the least, as delicious lobster, entertainment, kids activities and the sure-to-be guest’s favourite inflatathon will all be on offer on the final day.
“We are pleased to host yet another Dubai Pre-Owned Boat Show for the ninth consecutive year, in an even bigger and better way. This is an event that has become a pillar in the Dubai event calendar over the years.
