Exhibitor Information

Welcome Potential Exhibitors!

You are invited to join our 23rd Annual Northeast Fishing & Hunting Show! Over the past twenty-two years, we have become firmly established in the northeast outdoor market with a following that consistently generates strong profits for our exhibitors. Year after year, our exhibitors tell us that sales at our show far exceed other shows in New England. We offer reasonable booth prices plus personal service from a family with generations of experience in producing events. Ours show has been established in Connecticut for more than 20 years and its success has lead to adding other events of its type in other markets. We are family oriented and offer great family entertainment as well as an education!

Regardless of the size of your company, if your business is fishing, hunting or outdoor related, this is the show to market and SELL your products and services. Our March dates enable our exhibitors to sell products just a few weeks prior to opening day! Unlike other marketing avenues, we provide you with face-to-face contact with thousands of avid sportsmen and women plus their families who are interested in what you have to sell.

Our goal is to produce a better show each year by developing new promotions, presenting new features and maintaining high quality exhibitors. It is our hope that you will consider exhibiting with us! I’ll help you to find the best spot available to exhibit your products or services. I look forward to working with you!
