The Allt för Sjön 2025 exhibition welcomes around 50,000 visitors every year to Stockholmsmässan, the exhibition centre of the Swedish capital. From 6 to 9 March and from 13 to 16 March, the Stockholm Boat Show will place a special emphasis on innovation and sustainability in the world of sailing. This year, the event introduces a new space dedicated to the preservation of the Baltic Sea and to ecological solutions for the maritime sector.

In addition to the traditional boat and nautical equipment exhibitions, this year Allt för Sjön is joining forces with the Östersjökontraktet Foundation, which works to preserve the Baltic Sea. A special area, called ‘Allt för Östersjön’, will be dedicated to initiatives and innovations aimed at protecting this fragile ecosystem.

A Special Seminar on the Environment, in the Presence of Princess Victoria

One of the highlights of the show will be the seminar on the Baltic Sea, organised on 14 March, in partnership with several environmental organisations. Crown Princess Victoria, known for her commitment to the protection of the marine environment, will be present at this event.

The seminar will also bring together prominent speakers, including Minister for Rural Affairs Peter Kullgren, former MEP Isabella Lövin, and specialised scientists such as Sara Söderström and Albin Gräns.

Thomas Flinck, head of the seminar, emphasises the importance of this initiative: ‘It is a valuable opportunity to bring together experts, politicians and the general public to discuss the crucial issues related to the Baltic Sea. The participation of Princess Victoria testifies to the importance of the subject and the need for collective mobilisation.’

Sustainable Solutions and New Practices for Boating

The 2025 edition of the show will also highlight innovative approaches for more sustainable boating. Among the initiatives presented:

• A sale of second-hand boats directly on site, a first for Allt för Sjön.
• Re-fitting, a process that extends the lifespan of boats by modernising their aesthetics, performance and energy efficiency. Visitors will be able to discover the advantages of this practice through demonstrations and conferences.

Katarina Hamnholm, acting director of the show, emphasises the importance of these commitments on Actunautique Yachting Art: ‘Our goal is to raise awareness and inspire visitors to make more responsible choices when it comes to sailing. The presence of Princess Victoria at the seminar reinforces the urgent message about protecting the Baltic Sea.’

A Boating Event at the Heart of a Larger Programme

Allt för Sjön 2025 is part of a larger programme. During the first weekend (6-9 March), the show will be held in parallel with Antikmässan, dedicated to antiques. The second weekend (13-16 March) will coincide with Stockholm Husvagn Husbil, an event dedicated to recreational vehicles.

Finally, the Sportfiskemässan, a trade fair dedicated to sport fishing, will take place from 14 to 16 March, requiring a separate ticket.
