The event will showcase as many as 150 boats and watercraft on land and feature in -lake demonstrations by retail dealers and manufacturers. The Boat Show includes exhibitors, food vendors, amplified DJ music and a beer garden. City staff is in the process of preparing conditions for the event. A pre- requisite for finalizing the conditions is obtaining the City Council's approval to waive the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC) to permit serving of alcoholic beverages in public, as well as increase the boat speed limit within the High Speed Zone.
