Singapore Maritime Week returns next April, with the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore setting the week for 12 to 16 April and Experia Events appointed as event manager. The organisers have marked the dates as confirmed but have not yet named a venue for the 2027 edition.

Maritime Week is the anchor of Singapore's shipping calendar and one of the larger annual gatherings of the global maritime industry. The programme usually combines a flagship conference with an exhibition, talent and recruitment sessions, port and terminal tours, a start up challenge run with the local innovation ecosystem, and a long list of partner events convened by classification societies, owners' associations and chambers of shipping.

For executives the week is where policy and commerce meet. Singapore is the largest ship bunkering port in the world and one of the busiest container transhipment hubs, so positions taken or signalled during the week on marine fuel standards, digital documentation and port investment are read well beyond the island.

The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore is the statutory board that regulates the port, administers the Singapore Registry of Ships and promotes the country as an international maritime centre. Experia Events, the Singapore organiser of the Singapore Airshow and IMDEX Asia, delivers the week on the authority's behalf.
