A premier event for diving enthusiasts, adventurers and marine conservationists, MIDE 2024 will showcase the latest innovations, trends and experiences in the diving industry.

Attendees can look forward to exploring cutting-edge dive gear and equipment from top manufacturers and brands, a diverse range of exhibitors, interactive workshops and compelling presentations. The expo will offer a chance to discover exciting travel destinations and dive sites around the world.

Participants can also engage in hands-on demonstrations and test the latest dive technologies, as well as connect with fellow diving enthusiasts and professionals to share experiences and insights.

Show highlights

A major highlight of MIDE 2024 will be the screening of the documentary, 50 Hours Underwater – A Dive for Hope, on 8 June. This documentary celebrates the underwater world’s diversity and complexity, aiming to spark meaningful conversations about marine conservation and promote a better understanding of the underwater wolrd. The expo will introduce a new platform called Careers in Scuba Diving, allowing individuals to explore various career paths within the scuba diving industry. Live demonstrations will offer beginners the chance to experience diving firsthand, guided by experienced professionals.

Forum and dialogue sessions will delve into various facets of diving, from adventure and exploration to conservation efforts and sustainable practices, featuring expert speakers. Visitors can participate in expert-led workshops and seminars on topics such as dive safety, underwater photography, marine biology, technical diving, sustainable diving practices and more. The event will also include interactive activities and educational presentations for younger visitors, focusing on important environmental issues like plastic pollution, coral reef conservation and marine biodiversity.

Networking opportunities will abound, allowing attendees to connect with industry leaders, fellow divers and potential collaborators during networking sessions and social events. Exhibitors’ efforts will be recognized with the Best Booth Award during the event’s opening ceremony. Daily prizes, including dive vacations, equipment and courses worth over RM80,000 (nearly US$17,000) , will be awarded throughout the three-day expo, courtesy of generous exhibitors, suppliers and partners.
