Electrika 2025

Buiding on the success of last year's pioneering event, we are pleased to announce Electrika 2025, the second ever gathering of electic narrowboat owners, industry experts and manufacturers.

With more and more electric narrrowboats on the canal network and increasing interest in sustainable boating, Electrika aims to encourage and support the wider adoption of electric propulsion on the UK waterways.

Details for this year's show are still being worked out, but we have included as much information as we currently have below, and we recommend watching this space for updates.

Exciting Days

Welcome to Electrika 2025

Over the last few years a near silent revolution has been taking place, as a new generation of electric propelled, hybrid narrowboats have been launched on UK waterways.

Adoption has been slowly gathering momentum, but finding good information is difficult, even at national boat shows. Electrika aims to provide a meeting point for early adopters, manufacturers and potential new owners to share information and real-life experience of this exciting new technology.

When

Friday 11 - 12 July, 2025

Where

Brinklow Waterside & Marina, Cathiron Lane, Rugby, CV23 0JH

Organised by

Ortomarine in partnership with Aquavista

Two Days - FREE Entry

Electrika 2025 will be held over two days and entry is FREE. Availability is limited to 500 spaces per day, so we do ask that people only reserve tickets for one or other of the two days (not both). Tickets must be reserved using this website when the ticket reservations go live in December.

This year, there will be a limited number of camping pitches for tents and motorhomes. These will be issued on a first come, first served basis and must be booked via Brinklow Waterside and Marina - there is a fee for these pitches.
