THE Robe Boat Show is in its 11th year, over 35000 people have visited our event over the last 10 years,and it is now seen as one of the biggest Boat Fishing and Leisure Shows outside a capital city in Australia, we are endorsed by the “Boating industry Association” the controlling body of the boating industry in Australia.
Most importantly the Robe Boat Show is firmly on the calendar of people interested in all forms of outdoor activities in the South East of SA and the western districts and Malley regions of Victoria, our retailers of boats, caravans, cars, off-road vehicles, jet skis, tackle, and lifestyle products keep coming back because it is so popular.
In addition we have a large outdoor food and wine offering that showcases the very best the SE has to offer.
This year we will be holding a four hour concert on each day showcasing the best talent going around.
Saturday 12 till 4pm with 4 On the floor and Beck Willis.
Sunday 12 till 4pm with Limestone Americana.
And due to Louise Adams suffering a nasty broken leg, another act to be announced before the show.
We take great pride in promoting local community organisations, this year we are featuring the Robe Surf Lifesaving club, these people perform a great service to our community, and all the visitors that come to Robe to enjoy our amazing beaches and water sports.
This year the RSLC nippers will be holding races in the marina on Sunday, while older members will be selling merchandise and promoting membership, to pay for a much needed club facility and storage area for their equipment.
In addition the Robe lions have a free site to make money through the sales of barbeque lunches.
Robe businesses are great supporters of this event which brings much needed revenue into Robe, through accommodation, food and beverage and general retail sales.
However the most important thing for us, is providing a great days entertainment for the whole family, we especially enjoy welcoming our friends from Mount Gambier and the Limestone coast.
During these difficult times there has been little reason and opportunity to get together and have fun, and that is what the Robe Boat Show will provide.
Come and join us on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 of February, at the Robe Boat Show Lake Butler Marina.
