The Denarau Boat Show that was earmarked for November of this year has been shifted to September 2014.
The move came after various consultations with stakeholders in the marine industry.
Spearheaded by Denarau Corporation Limited, a committee has been formed with the industry stakeholders to strategise on a positive way forward for this growing industry.
The inaugural Denarau Boat Show was held in November last year with over 4000 people attending the three-day event that was held at the Port Denarau Marina.
Denarau Corporation Marketing, Events and Corporate Communications executive, Losana McGowan, said they decided on September as this was the busiest period for Port Denarau which plays host to some of the world’s super yacht.
“The inclusion of the marine industry stakeholders ensures that they take ownership of this event,” she said.
“Working together with them will not only drive this event in a positive direction but it will ensure the success of this event as a yearly Denarau event that will drive the tourists to Fiji in numbers for years to come.”
