Italian fishing and outdoor event lands in Rimini
The giant international fishing, boating and outdoor show, Pescare, continues to evolve and expand and, for 2025, has announced a new location in Rimini and a second event in Naples a month later.
The Italian Exhibition Group’s show will assemble the sport fishing, boating and outdoor community in the halls of Rimini Expo Centre from February 7th to 9th, 2025 followed by the Naples event in March.
The move will allow IEG to expand its exhibition spaces and reference sectors while placing greater focus on sea fishing (alongside inland water fishing, which is still a core sector) and water sports in general.
Moving the international sport fishing, boating and outdoor activities exhibition to Rimini is not only a geographical change, but also a chance to further enrich the event with more brands and initiatives related to sea fishing and boating.
New ideas include the casting pool structures within Rimini Expo Centre as demo areas for casting events and the possibility of organising a real ‘Off Show’ with sea trials, thanks to the involvement of Club Nautico Rimini (the Rimini Nautical Club).
Meanwhile, there will also be a string of training sessions – including activities to introduce children and those with special needs to fishing and boating – and a focus on fishing organised in collaboration with important scientific and university bodies in the field of environmental protection, which has always been a feature of Pescare Show.
Organised by IEG in partnership with FIPSAS (Italian Federation of Sport Fishing and Underwater Activities), which will be included in the calendar of conferences, in-depth events and educational activities, and with the patronage of Assonat (National Association of Docks and Marinas), Pescare is Italy’s leading trade show and reference event for the sport fishing and boating community.
Moreover, with the 2025 edition, the event’s internationalisation development will be endorsed by associations and stakeholders from all over Europe thanks to partnerships with the European Fly Fishing Association (EFFA), Tackle Trade World and Inside Fishing, and the renewal of media partnerships with H2O magazine and Italian Fishing TV.
Everything in one place
The event will not only be a meeting point for all the sport and recreational fishing sectors but also for boating, shipbuilding, electronics and the entire outdoor activity world in terms of life in the open air, love and respect for nature and all activities where water is the element of reference.
For example, this could be combining a passion for nature and outdoor activities such as trekking and biking with freshwater fishing using ultralight rods - an activity that is especially attracting the younger generation.
Alongside the casting pools inside the Expo Centre, other areas organised as part of Pescare Show will include Aquademo (a giant aquarium specifically for product demonstrations and talks by content creators and pro-staff), Fly Tying Experience (dedicated to fly fishing and attended by the world’s best artificial fly producers), the“Social Media Village to meet influencers and pro-staff of several companies, sportsmen and sector experts, and Content Hub, a talk area designed for meetings and product presentations.
During Pescare Show, the high-speed railway station inside Rimini Expo Centre will ensure maximum accessibility to enthusiasts and companies.
Following the Rimini edition, Pescare Show 2025 will move to Naples as part of the Mostra d'Oltremare in March.
