19th Annual Ship-Shape Showcase

THIS YEAR, WE'RE ALL OUTSIDE!

Ship-Shape Showcase is all about networking, connecting and showcasing Manatee Chamber members. The event draws hundreds of attendees and features many Chamber member businesses promoting their products and services with booth displays. 

Attendees get to experience a close-up view of Port Manatee through a narrated bus tour, enjoy complimentary appetizers provided by member restaurants & caterers, entertainment, cash bar, door prizes and more!

We are encouraging our exhibitors and attendees to get into the "Coastal Cruise" theme this year!  Decorate your space if you're showcasing and/or dress to the casual theme and come enjoy! 

COVID Protocols (subject to change): Masks are required when unable to physically distance. Masks and hand sanitizer will be available at registration. While we'd love to see you, please do not attend if you or any members of your household are feeling unwell.
