The Great Lakes Outdoor Show is an exciting weekend event to bring together outdoor enthusiasts within the Great Lakes Algoma area. For two days we bring together local businesses that are directly involved with the outdoor community. The show is intended to promote activities such as fishing, camping, paddling, power sports, and outdoor experiences!
We encourage families to come and enjoy the experience and see what we have to offer! We have a dedicated Kids Fun Zone that is sure to bring lots of excitement!
The outdoor show is jammed packed with different vendors and guest speakers! Make your way around the beautiful Bushplane Museum and discover the different products and services that each vendor has to offer!
We’re closed Tuesday, March 7, and Wednesday, March 8, for private programming with our local public and separate school boards.
There will be an evening gala event on March 8, doors open at 7 PM; close at 9:30 PM. This event is ticketed and for visitors aged 19 and up. Check out Boundaries, Barriers and Balance for more.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
