The new model of active outdoors show, The Big Gear Show features (e)revolution together with the new Outside Festival to gather all the discoveries and brand stories in one place for all stakeholders.
The Big Gear Show is an exciting new multi-category event bringing outdoor enthusiasts together. An event that showcases up-and-coming gear for specialty retailers and the media, then transitioning to a welcoming platform for consumers to learn about brands and gear that get them outdoors.

Retailers and the media can meet with new and existing brands and discover new resources to serve their customers. Additionally, attendees will have access to education and networking as well as an opportunity to explore the adjacent categories (like overland and e-bike).
