CINCINNATI (WKRC) - If you're looking to get rid of your winter blues, there's one place you can go to dream it all away.

It's feeling a lot like summer at the Travel, Sports and Boat Show at the Duke Energy Convention Center this weekend. 

There are so many cool things to do and see at the show. Chip Hart, the owner of Hart Productions, says you can even start planning your vacation there. The show's Travel section is set up with plenty of destinations you can book.

You can also shop and buy while at the show. Hart Productions' CEO, Vicki Hart, says it's the perfect place to shop for and buy a boat at preseason prices before the summer. She said they have over 36 types of boats, and you can shop and compare prices or even buy on the floor.

There's also a pool where you can test out kayaks and canoes if smaller boats are more your thing.

The show is also celebrating their 60th anniversary. Vicki says it's been great to watch how the show has grown and evolved over the years.

“I would say this is one of the biggest shows we’ve had. We take every square inch of the first floor and the golf show is the second floor," she said.

The show runs Sunday and then again from Jan. 18 to Jan. 22. 

You can buy discounted tickets at Kroger. Kids 12 and under get into the show for free
