If chilly weather has you counting down the days to sunny afternoons on the lake, we’ve got good news for you — the Upstate South Carolina Boat Show is just around the corner.

From Thursday, Jan. 23 to Sunday, Jan. 26, this family-friendly event is back at the Greenville Convention Center, showcasing the latest models of boats. Think: fishing, pontoons, speed, ski, cruisers, and personal watercraft.

You’ll also find everything you need to gear up for the season, from boat docks and accessories to vendors ready to help with financing + insurance.

Psst… Don’t miss the Trifecta, a 1,000-horsepower engine that will be on display. For context, most engines range from 250 to 500 horsepower, so this is a must-see.

  • Thursday, Jan. 23: 11 a.m.-7 p.m.
  • Friday, Jan. 24: 11 a.m.-7 p.m.
  • Saturday, Jan. 25: 10 a.m.-7 p.m.
  • Sunday, Jan. 26: 11 a.m.-5 p.m.
