Description
The Western Hunting & Conservation Expo (Expo) is a celebration of wildlife conservation and America’s hunting heritage. This one-of-a-kind event was created by the Mule Deer Foundation (MDF) and Sportsmen for Fish & Wildlife (SFW). These two national wildlife conservation organizations have combined their resources to produce what is now the premier, must-attend hunting and wildlife conservation event in North America.The Expo is a major wildlife fundraising event that raises million of dollars annually for critical wildlife conservation projects and the fulfillment of SFW’s and MDF’s respective missions.
The Expo offers a unique opportunity for hunters to apply for 200 of Utah’s most sought-after limited entry big game permits for just $5 each application. Applications must be validated in person by the hunter.
The Expo reaches more than 3 million western hunters through a multi-media broadcast, digital and print advertising campaign geographically targeted in California, Texas, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana and other states.
50,000 avid big game hunters from 48 of 50 states attend the Expo (Connecticut and Delaware were not represented in 2023).
The Expo features 575+ exhibitors from throughout North America and other continents representing hunting, manufacturing, guides and outfitters, retailers, and other companies.
The Expo hosts 3 live auctions during the 4-day event – Friday Day, Friday Night and Saturday Night – bringing bidders in person and online competing for hundreds of Conservation permits, Statewide and Governor’s permits, international and other premium hunts, collector firearms, and a variety of other auction items during these exciting events.
Strengthening Wildlife Conservation: The Expo greatly enhances partnerships between hunting-based companies and wildlife conservation organizations in a common goal to restore, protect, and enhance wildlife populations through a myriad of important watershed, habitat and wildlife initiatives.
