Trade Show

The Public Lands Alliance Trade Show is the best place for companies to sell products and services to a national network of buyers from nonprofit organizations supporting public lands.

Retail store buyers, purchasers of volunteer and donor recognition gifts, decision makers and influencers use this event to shop and learn about products and services to educate, promote and enhance visitor experiences on public lands.

What Attendees Say


"As a first year convention attendee, I was very impressed and inspired by the Speakers and could truly relate to them with the love that they have for our public lands. I will use this experience to enhance my skills with partners to make our public lands a richer place to visit!"

Juanita Souther US Army Corps of Engineers


"In 2017, we brought four staff, two members of our Board and the Deputy Superintendent to the PLA Convention. Each of us appreciated the education and networking and it brought us together as a partnership and team."
