MDL Marinas partners with iconic Guinness Bar at SIBS 2024

We are thrilled to announce our sponsorship of the legendary Guinness Bar at the 2024 Southampton International Boat Show (SIBS), running from 13th to 22nd September at Mayflower Park.

This exciting partnership offers our berth holders exclusive hospitality at one of the show’s most popular venues, enhancing their overall experience.

As part of this sponsorship, berth holders attending the show will receive a complimentary pint of the world’s most famous stout at the Guinness Bar. For those who prefer a non-alcoholic option, a variety of refreshing soft drinks will also be available.

To further enhance the show experience, we are hosting an exclusive ‘Welcome Breakfast’ for our berth holders on Friday 13th September, from 10:00 to 12:00 at the Guinness Bar. Guests will enjoy a choice of a bacon or egg roll, accompanied by a hot drink, to start the first day of the show on a high note.

The show is a cornerstone of the boating calendar, and we’re delighted to offer something special to our valued customers. Located in a prime position, the Guinness Bar is a renowned meeting spot, and we’re pleased to help make our customers’ experience even more memorable.
