Overland Expo Pacific Northwest returns to Deschutes County Expo Center in Redmond June 28-30
REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) – Overland Expo, the premier overlanding event series in the world, today announced Overland Expo Pacific Northwest (PNW), the second of four 2024 U.S. events, will take place June 28-30 at the Deschutes County Expo Center.
With over 350 vendors, this consumer expo showcases the newest off-road autos, motorcycles, tents, cookware and equipment, mobile power, and technologies bringing the comforts of home to first time participants. Exhibitors from 10 different countries will show their latest offerings including Four-Wheel Pop-Up Campers, Optima Batteries, Rhino-Rack, and Yakima, among others.
Overland Expo Pacific Northwest hosts more than 300 session-hours of programs, 175+ different classes, demonstrations, and activities taught by 100+ instructors and presenters from around the world. Key show highlights include:
- BFGoodrich “Find Yourself Off-Road”: A popular attraction is the custom-built off-road course, where attendees can navigate various terrains atop BFGoodrich tires.
- “Women Who Wander”: A new series will feature female-specific education during the days throughout the weekend and a fun, engaging fireside chat on Friday night from 7 pm-9 pm.
- Land Rover “Vehicular Games”: New this year, the Pacific Coast Rover Club and the Association of North American Rover Clubs will bring these “vehicular games” to Overland Expo Pacific Northwest on Sunday, June 30th at the Deschutes Expo Center in Redmond, Oregon
“Following a successful Overland Expo West show, we look forward to nurturing the momentum of our overlanding series introducing more consumers to this experience,” said Jessica Kirchner, vice president of consumer events for Emerald, owners of Overland Expo. “New, casual participants are seeking simple, easy experiences rather than epic expeditions. Our event series caters to both new and experienced overlanders, providing a wide range of activities, brands, and training sessions enhancing their overlanding adventures.”
A highlight of the show every year is The Ultimate Build for vehicles and motorcycles when Overland Expo outfits the latest and greatest adventure gear creating a vision of the “ultimate” overland vehicle. This year, 2023 GMC Canyon AT4X was selected for the Ultimate Vehicle Build, while the 2024 Ural Gear Up Standard was chosen for the 2024 Ultimate Overland Motorcycle Build.
