NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits, Atlanta 2025

The 154th NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits will take place this week at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Ga. With over 14 acres of the latest guns, gear, personalities and more from the industry, this is a celebration of our uniquely American freedoms.

All three days will feature a wide array of events, including the NRA Foundation Banquet and Auction, NRA Country’s Freedom Experience with Big & Rich and who can forget the NRA Foundation’s famous Wall of Guns? These flagship events are only a sampler of what’s to come. Others include the Annual National Firearms Law Seminar, the National Prayer Breakfast and much more.

Also new to this show will be the “Voices of the Second Amendment,” where you will be able to meet your favorite content creators! Each broadcaster will transmit his or her unique brand of pro-Second Amendment commentary from a collection of booths on the show floor, collectively known as “Media Row.”

Stay tuned for a diverse collection of interviews featuring notable figures from in and around the industry with America’s 1st Freedom Editor in Chief Frank Miniter.

“Historically, the NRA show is where Second Amendment news as well as new products and industry announcements break; Something’s always happening during these action-packed four days,” said NRA Executive Vice President & CEO Doug Hamlin. “So, what better way to broadcast all the news from the show to American gun owners and NRA members who did not have an opportunity to join us in Atlanta. We’ve invited some of the top media professionals in the 2A streaming space to transform the NRA show floor into their personal broadcast studios for the weekend, so firearm fans will miss out on as little as possible.”

The NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits is free to all NRA members and their families (spouses and children under 18 years old), uniformed military and law enforcement and organized youth groups. And, if you are not currently a member, you can join at the door. The exhibit hall will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, as well as 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
