Outdoor Trade Show is gearing up to open the doors of its next edition at EventCity in Manchester on Tuesday 9 July.

With a line-up of outdoor and sportswear brands including Puma, Mammut, Osprey, Regatta, Birkenstock and Findra, the event will provide a platform for exhibitors to showcase everything from apparel, footwear and accessories, to watersports clothing and mountain engineering equipment.

The show is organised in partnership with the Outdoor Industries Association, the trade body for manufacturers, retailers and other organisations that provide products and services for the outdoor market in the UK.

And this summer will be the first unified edition of Outdoor Trade Show and the Kendal Outdoor Retail Show (KORS), which announced last year that it was closing its doors to put its efforts into the OTS show. Merging the two events would give exhibitors and visitors a number of new benefits, KORS organisers explained at the time.

So taking place on 9-11 July at the largest exhibition,and conference venue in the North of England, Outdoor Trade Show has attracted new exhibitors like DMM International, Kathmandu, Birkenstock, Head & Puma, Red Original, Ecco and Adidas Terrex. 

The event is billed as “UK's only large scale outdoor sport and leisure-focused trade show”.
