The Armature Works Boat Show is a free, waterfront boating event in Tampa held along the Hillsborough River at Armature Works. Unlike larger convention-style boat shows, this event focuses on an open-air, walkable experience with boats, marine vendors, and a lively riverfront atmosphere.

• Open-air boat displays along the river
• Walkable vendor booths and exhibits
• Easy access to dining, drinks, and the Riverwalk
• A relaxed, social atmosphere perfect for all ages
