The 4th NAVEXPO show will drop anchor in Lorient-la-Base from March 28th to 30th, 2019

The members of the French and international maritime sector will meet up for the fourth edition of this professional naval show.

Nice catch for Lorient: 3000 people went to NAVEXPO in 2018 with an optimal satisfaction index. The biggest Show afloat in France keeps its promises.

 

Lorient, home port of the Show

It’s no surprise that the site of Lorient, major Breton maritime pole, should innovates in the organization of a show that grows each year!

A fish auction in constant modernization, companies which set up shop and consolidate the fishing network, a fleet of 130 ships... its harbor hosts more than 400 ships a year and its repair sector is looking to invest in a 5000 ton lift!

The strong identity of the Lorient basin radiates throughout this innovative and dynamic event.

Only afloat Show in France

Inspired by the Seawork show in Southampton, NAVEXPO is the only afloat Show in France. The public can wander the 1000 meters of pontoons and visit the moored "made in France" workboats, to discover their technological innovations. Demonstrations and sea trials are also planned by manufacturers to showcase onboard equipment. Weathered seafarer or freshwater sailor, 22 meter trawler or speedboat, there is something for everyone! With an afloat surface that should quadruple soon it’s hard to argue with this show’s value.

Dockside, a hundred exhibitors

3 days to tour the innovations presented by passionate builders. All maritime sectors are represented: maritime safety and security (pilotage, towing and pollution control), fishing and aquaculture, maritime works, submarines and hydrography, transport (freight and passengers) and offshore with renewable energies and scientific missions. Gildas Bernard, organizer of the show, holds the rudder of this popular meeting of professionals and keeps Navexpo right on course.
