SNIM - Salone Nautico of Puglia

The boating and sport fishing sectors are finding an increasingly solid point of convergence through strategic partnerships focused on the future of the Blue Economy. A significant example is the collaboration between Pescare Show, Italy’s leading trade fair for the sport fishing, boating and fishing electronics community, as well as for outdoor activities and tourism, and SNIM, the Nautical Show of Puglia, which will take place in Brindisi from October 22 to 26, 2026.

This synergy represents much more than a simple collaboration: it is tangible proof of how two worlds can engage in a fruitful dialogue, creating added value for industry professionals and enthusiasts alike. Indeed, recreational boating and sport fishing share common values, such as respect for the marine environment, a passion for the sea, and a commitment to the sustainability of fishery resources.

Pescare Show has successfully interpreted this market evolution, recognizing boating as a rapidly growing segment that perfectly aligns with the sport fishing audience. Boaters are often also sport anglers, and vice versa, creating a cross-sector audience that values integrated and complementary offerings.

A particularly significant connection, also from a territorial perspective, given the shared vocation of the areas concerned and the ability of both sectors to generate passion, tourism, economic activity, and new opportunities to enhance the coastal and maritime heritage.

The combination of expertise and experience between these two leading events also helps promote a more informed and respectful culture of the sea, where sport, nautical tourism, and environmental sustainability go hand in hand. A partnership that looks to the future, highlighting the excellence of the sector.
