For the first time, Outdoor Retailer is joining forces with the Sports Licensing and Tailgate Show, a sister show, to create Tailgating @ OR. The new exhibit area will be an outside section of the Street Scene next to the Pavilions @ OR. The area will be open to both existing OR exhibitors and new exhibitors interested in tailgating and outdoor activities. Plans for the area include an Opening Night Party, cooking competitions and testing of new products. The Outdoor Retailer Summer Market and the new Tailgating @ OR will take place on Aug. 6-9 at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, hosting 7,000 specialty outdoor and mass-market retailers from around the world.
