Great American Outdoor Show 2025

Celebrate the outdoor traditions treasured by so many at the upcoming Great American Outdoor Show!

The Great American Outdoor Show is one of the most significant annual events that celebrates hunting, fishing, and outdoor sports. Initially launched in 1995 as the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, it quickly became a major attraction for outdoor enthusiasts and industry professionals.

The show was renamed the Great American Outdoor Show in 2014, a year after the National Rifle Association (NRA) took over its management.

The show has displayed world-record-breaking trophies, such as elk and deer mounts, a massive draw for hunting enthusiasts!

Come to the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex (which covers 650,000 square feet!) and be part of this fantastic show from February 1 to 9!

What to Expect When Attending Great American Outdoor Show 2025

Over 1,100 exhibitors will be there at the booths, presenting everything from hunting gear, fishing equipment, and camping supplies to firearms, outdoor apparel, boats, RVs, and more. Beyond these, you can find unique handcrafted items, wildlife art, taxidermy displays, and rustic home décor.

Celebrity appearances, seminars, demonstrations, and workshops also attract the attendees of this show each year! You'll learn hunting techniques, fishing strategies, conservation efforts, and more from industry leaders. Find out more about fishing and outdoor traditions, survival in the wilderness, and see some exciting wildlife photos!

Take a break at the show at food vendors offering hearty outdoor-themed food options like venison, barbecue, and jerky. Mix that with the local beer, which is served as a refreshment!

Expect pretty chilly weather, with temperatures highs around 35–45°F (2–7°C) and lows of about 20–30°F (-6 to -1°C). Dress warmly, wear comfortable shoes, and be prepared for occasional snow or rain!
