ABOUT THE FAIR
The Scuba Show is the most important annual public trade show for diving in the USA. Held annually at various locations, this trade show offers a unique platform where divers, professionals, and companies from all over the world meet in the heart of Southern California.
Organized by Scuba Properties Corporation, the show brings together hundreds of exhibitors and an international audience interested in the latest developments and trends in diving across over 70,000 square feet.
The Scuba Show is far more than a product trade show: it is an experiential venue for innovation, exchange, and education. Visitors can expect a diverse range of offerings – from cutting-edge diving technology and equipment to international travel destinations and areas such as underwater photography, diver training, and marine research. The spectrum ranges from specialized manufacturers to diving schools and tour operators, as well as environmental organizations, non-profit initiatives, and suppliers of maritime-inspired handicrafts.
A special highlight is the film festival, which showcases impressive diving films from around the world on the big screen. The program is complemented by a casino night that combines networking with entertainment. In addition, over 70 seminars and workshops offer opportunities to deepen specialist knowledge, acquire new skills, or obtain certification – for beginners and experienced divers alike. Interactive offerings such as a free introductory dive in a 15,000-gallon pool make the show particularly attractive for beginners and those interested.
The Scuba Show is aimed at both the general public and trade visitors from the tourism, equipment development, underwater photography, sports and leisure industries, as well as environmental and marine research.
As a central meeting place for a dynamic, international community, the Scuba Show sets new standards for innovation, sustainability, and experiential diving every year.
The Scuba Show in Long Beach took place from Saturday, 30. May to Sunday, 31. May 2026.
