WHO we are and What makes us stand out

Reinventing the Outdoor Show Experience 

The Big Gear Show is owned and operated by longtime outdoor retail veterans producing shows by and for the greater outdoor industries. The company (Lost Paddle Events) is privately held and has no shareholders or angel investors to satisfy; this allows for appropriate pricing and participant benefits that resonate. Specifically, the Lost Paddle Events team focus on three key aspects of value for all exhibiting and attending groups:

• affordable pricing and increased value
• focus on discovery, innovation and relationship-building
• advancing inclusion to expand relevance and grow industry influence

The Lost Paddle Events team may be small, but is mighty and well connected in the active outdoor world inclusive of brands, retailers, media, advocacy orgs and community leaders nationwide. With three iterations of Big Gear under their belt, this team is building the future of relevant, powerful and responsible gatherings.
