The latest SHOT Show Exhibitor Insider is now available.👇 Exhibitors can get the latest need-to-know information to stay ahead of the game for SHOT Show 2025. Here is a summary:

Buyers, media and other SHOT Show badge holders are all purchasing networking packages for after-hours events around Vegas during the SHOT Show, all adding up to more opportunities than ever to connect to customers and the overall community. You can register team members and customers. Get more information in the latest Insider!

Unfortunately, we continuously see—and receive—bogus solicitations for attendee lists (even putting our logo on it), hotel rooms dramatically discounted, and show dailies distributed in all hotels and throughout the Strip (which isn’t permitted). If it's too good to be true, go with your gut and don’t pursue or even acknowledge it.

As you may be aware, the United States dockworkers represented by the International Longshoremen's Association (ILA) went on strike, halting operations at various ports. To avoid the risk of your freight being delayed due to potential work stoppage at U.S. ports, we highly recommend you ship your freight earlier to avoid its arrival in January.  Freeman does accept freight early through its advance warehouse and we suggest you work with your carriers to ensure you do not have any delays. Get more information in the latest Insider!

The Supplier Showcase takes place on Monday and Tuesday of SHOT Week, and it’s bigger than ever with more than 600 exhibiting suppliers in one room. As registration for exhibitors is now open, please plan ahead and make sure team members with engineering or supply chain responsibilities are scheduled to attend SHOT Week for that timeframe.

We're excited to introduce you to Jampack, an official partner for the 2025 SHOT Show. Whether you need group dining reservations, team excursions or venue sourcing for private events, Jampack is standing by to assist.
