Launched in 1973, the Grand Pavois has become a major event of the marine industry. The number of exhibitors has been multiplied by 20 and the visitors by 30, and reaching 104,500 in 2007. The Grand Pavois became one of the biggest international on water boat shows. 100,000 square meters of exhibition surface (45,000 square meters afloat), 13 thematic areas, 700 boats including 300 afloat and more than 800 exhibitors representing 35 countries. The Grand Pavois is the first autumn show.
It, above all, keeps its own identity… Remember that the Grand Pavois is the only International boat show registered by an association and led by professionals ‘for professionals’. Also, keep in mind that the Grand Pavois is completely connected to the International marine market, it sheds light on the production’s true qualities to exportation and importation, and constantly proves the richness, cleverness and multiplicity of the shipyards that are still chosing the GRAND PAVOIS as the Autumn “rendez-vous”.
