The International WorkBoat Show is a trade-only conference and expo for commercial vessel owners, operators and builders as well as the vendors and suppliers that serve them.

Held every year in New Orleans, the show attracts 15,000 members of the commercial marine industry, who come together from around the world to network, learn about industry trends, uncover innovative products and solutions.

WorkBoat has a mix of US and international exhibitors. Visitors are mainly from the US with a range of other countries attending. The highest percentage of visitors are from the southern United States. Most US professional maritime organisations have a presence including US Coast Guard and US Navy who outline future requirements and procurements.
