Marketplace Events has announced its show dates for its outdoor show series in the Pacific Northwest, Denver and Alaska. This 6-show series continues to grow with the addition of The Denver Sport and Outdoor Show in February 2027.
The 6-show series includes: The Portland Boat Show, Washington Sportsmen’s Show, Denver Sport and Outdoor Show, Pacific Northwest Sportsmen’s Show, Great Alaska Sportsman Show and Central Oregon Sportsmen’s Show.
Dates for these shows are:

“The combined attendance of these six shows is about 150,000 and every one of them is a retail powerhouse”, commented Peter O’Loughlin, Show Manager. “The Pacific Northwest Sportsmen’s Show is the second-largest sportsmen’s show in North America with more than 325,000 square feet of exhibit space that attracts attendees from across the nation. The Washington Sportsmen’s Show is Washington’s largest with nearly 500 exhibits and pulls attendance from across the state. Our Central Oregon Sportsmen’s Show is another gem, that occupies acres of outside and inside space in one of the most beautiful locations in the country. This show touts the highest per capita sales of any of our shows. And there’s no better place in North America for a Sportsman show than Anchorage, Alaska with The Great Alaska Sportsman Show. Attendees travel from all over Alaska to enjoy this show. Even better, is the recent news that the dates for the Great Alaska Sportsman Show have been moved into April and their traditional dates, April 16-18, 2027.”
Bob O’Loughlin, Manager of the Denver Sport & Outdoor Show, is already off to a strong start with this new addition to the show series, “We’re very pleased with the venue and reception we’ve received from exhibitors wanting to participate in this new show. Our goal is to strike a balance between hunting and fishing so there’s something there for everyone in this outdoor-recreation-rich area.” Bob brings decades of show production experience to Denver in launching this new event.
And with nearly 70 years of history, the Portland Boat Show stands alone as one of the top sportfishing boat shows in the country and is home to the largest selection of heavy-gauge welded aluminum boats in the world. “We’re fortunate to have the breadth of boats and boating products we’ve landed for this show”, started Peter O’Loughlin, “The selection of heavy gauge welded aluminum boats is unrivaled and attracts buyers from the Great Lakes, California, Alaska, Washington and other Western States.” Heavy gauge welded aluminum boats aren’t the only boats represented, virtually every major category of boating is well-represented.
The Washington Sportsmen’s Show, Pacific Northwest Sportsmen’s Show and Central Oregon Sportsmen’s Show are all presented by Leupold and sponsored by Progressive. The Portland Boat Show is presented by Progressive. All six shows are produced by Marketplace Events. For complete show information and details call 503-246-8291.
