Attendance at last weekend’s wildly successful 144th NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Nashville surpassed the 70,000 members expected to visit Music City. Final figures put the total at 78,865 attendees for the three-day event—second only to 86,000 who attended the annual meetings in Houston in 2013.
The crowd outpaced last year’s total 75,269 in Indianapolis, and surpassed the previous record attendance for any event at the two-year-old Music City Center in downtown Nashville.
Next year, the 145th NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits will be held May 20-22 in Louisville, Ky.
