Plan ahead
Why Arrange Your Transportation in Advance
The show is spread across several waterfront locations around Seabreeze Boulevard, Las Olas and the 17th Street Causeway, and the whole area is busy all week.
Booking a private car ahead of time means:
- No parking to find at the Convention Center or nearby garages
- Your own schedule, useful when you have broker appointments, sea trials or meetings at set times
- An agreed return time, rather than looking for a ride when the show closes and crowds leave together
- A quote agreed before the day, with gratuity, tolls and any fees listed
Attendees
Transportation for Boat Show Attendees
We drive visitors between their hotel, vacation rental or home and the show, then back again at a time you choose. When you book, tell us which show location you’re heading to first, so we can plan the drop-off around that day’s traffic arrangements.
Drop-off and pickup
We confirm the exact drop-off and meeting point with your booking, based on the show location you’re visiting and the traffic arrangements in place that day.
Business
For Exhibitors, Yacht Brokers and Business Visitors
Exhibitors and marine teams
Airport pickups for staff arriving for setup, and daily rides between hotels and the show, including Sprinter vans and shuttle buses for teams.
Yacht brokers
Transportation for your clients between hotels, the show and appointments. Ask us about billing options if you book regularly.
Executives and VIP guests
Black car service for meetings and client dinners during show week.
Full show days
Hourly chauffeur service, so the same car stays with you between the show, lunch and dinner. Ask about minimum hours.
Airports
Airport Transfers
Many visitors fly into Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), which is close to the show area. We pick up at FLL and drive you to your hotel, the show or your marina. We also provide transfers from Miami International Airport (MIA).
Send us your airline and flight number when you book; your pickup time adjusts to your actual arrival, and included waiting time is listed on your quote.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the 2026 Fort Lauderdale Boat Show?
Wednesday, October 28 through Sunday, November 1, 2026. Published hours are 12 PM to 7 PM on Wednesday, 10 AM to 7 PM Thursday to Saturday, and 10 AM to 5 PM on Sunday.
Where is the show held?
Across several waterfront locations in Fort Lauderdale, including Bahia Mar, Hall of Fame Marina, Pier Sixty-Six Marina, Superyacht Village at Pier Sixty-Six South, Las Olas Marina and the Broward County Convention Center, which is the main parking and shuttle hub.
Is a private car better than parking at the Convention Center?
The Convention Center has more than 3,000 parking spaces at a flat daily rate, with free shuttles to the show, which works well if you’re driving yourself. A private car suits you better if you’re flying in, staying at a hotel, have meetings at set times or are bringing clients.
Can you pick me up at FLL and take me straight to the show?
Yes. Share your flight details when you book, and your pickup time adjusts to your actual arrival.
Can I book a chauffeur for the whole day?
Yes. Hourly service suits days with several appointments; ask about minimum hours when you request a quote.
Where will I be dropped off and picked up?
We confirm the exact drop-off and meeting point with your booking, based on the show location and that day’s traffic arrangements.
Are you an official Boat Show transportation provider?
No. We’re an independent chauffeur service providing private transportation to and from the show.
