Exhibitor Information

In 2024 AORE is co-locating the Outdoor Professional Conference with the Athletic Business Show. This means that the education and networking will look and feel similar, but our exhibit hall will be the largest AORE has ever seen! 

Gain access to highly qualified prospects with substantial purchasing power!

AB Show is the largest comprehensive trades show for athletics, fitness, recreation and military professionals.  Our attendees represent massive capital improvement projects - including building and renovation projects with a budget of $50 million+ - meaning you're gaining valuable face time with key decision-makers who are making the purchasing decision on the products and services that will outfit their facilities.

Donate to Remove Financial Constraints and Grow the Industry - Scholarship Fund

We can’t offer the conference for free, as that would be perpetuating the cycle of low cost, low value. We offer this conference as an opportunity for outdoor recreation professionals to grow their skill sets and know their worth in the industry.  

You can help by donating to our scholarship fund — this helps sponsor professionals trip to New Orleans to learn from industry expects and connect with fellow trailblazers. Attendees will find plenty of networking opportunities, job opportunities, workshops, and a robust exhibit hall.
