Lido Marina Village · Newport Beach
Past event
Newport Beach International Boat Show
A major on-water showcase brought yachts, marine brands, hospitality, and coastal culture together at Lido Marina Village—with The Water Crest’s floating platform serving the event in Newport Harbor.
A setting that belongs to the harbor.
A waterfront exhibition asks guests, exhibitors, hospitality teams, and production partners to move through a temporary environment that spans land and water. The venue contribution needed to feel integrated with the harbor setting rather than added as a conventional event structure.
Configured around the occasion.
The floating platform created usable event space directly within the marina environment. Its open-air format and configurable footprint supported an event-specific plan while Revel Republic coordinated the venue experience around the broader show.
The water becomes part of the event.
The setting placed attendees at water level among the vessels and activity of Newport Harbor. The result was a highly contextual event environment: the harbor was not a backdrop, but part of how the show was experienced.
A public proof point for the platform.
The event remains the clearest public example of the platform operating as part of a prominent Newport Beach waterfront experience. It demonstrates the venue’s ability to transform for an ambitious event concept while staying connected to Lido Marina Village and the harbor.
