Another Amazing Year at the
Great American Outdoor Show

To all who traveled from across the country and around the globe to visit, exhibit, cover in the media, or simply celebrate the time-honored traditions of the great outdoors, the National Rifle Association extends its sincerest thanks for choosing to be with us.

GAOS 2025 was continued proof that the hunters, anglers, campers, boaters, outdoor enthusiasts, and shooting sports lovers in America are unwaveringly proud. One look around the packed hallways of the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex showed thousands of smiles that told the story of our culture - one that we cherish and vow to continue to fight to protect.

Harrisburg is home, and we couldn't be more proud to have celebrated with you in 2025. We're already planning next year's show and hope to see you all again - and many new faces - when we return on:

... What Attendees are Saying ...

“I appreciate all of the seminars geared towards hunting and shooting techniques. As someone who has taken up hunting late in life without a mentor or family member to learn from, these are very helpful to keep me motivated to continue.”

“It was my first time to visit the show. I brought my brother and it was his first time also. We were amazed at how many people were there. We enjoyed the tremendous variety of vendors/offerings. Interacting with like minded individuals in a pleasant environment. We were able to get some things we were looking for at a reasonable price.”

“I took my four year old daughter and had no problem keeping her entertained at the event and still was able to visit the vendors I wanted to speak with. The diversity and arrangement through out the complex kept her always seeking the next exciting thing to see. I appreciated the kids area for her to play and the kid-friendly seminar with snakes was awesome. We even enjoyed eating lunch in the arena watching the hunting videos on the screen. We will continue coming next year for another father and daughter only day at the show. I also attend annually with my dad & brother so it was nice to experience it from another perspective this year and really enjoyed!”

“It was the biggest show I've experienced and had almost everything one could ask for, including seminars and manufacturer exhibits.”

—2020 GAOS Attendee

“The variety in outfitters had a nice offering for any budget and hunt. The firearms and accessories portion had an awesome array of nice products that I’d probably never know about or get introduced to if I hadn’t explored. Lots of nice gear.”

—2020 GAOS Attendee

“I enjoy the different seminars that deal with guns, deer hunting, and cooking wild game. I especially enjoy meeting the hunter/hosts of my favorite hunting shows.”

—2020 GAOS Attendee

“I enjoyed talking to representatives of all of the gun manufacturers and purchasing a few fishing items made by private companies that are not well known yet or available in big company stores. Seeing the taxidermy exhibit with the safari animals was great!”
