IWA OutdoorClassics 2026: Event Profile

A success story: Around 1 million visitors in 50 years of IWA OutdoorClassics

The national product show for the retail gun trade and gunsmiths opened its doors in Nuremberg for the first time in 1974 with just under 100 exhibitors. The international name IWA OutdoorClassics is due to the rapidly increased importance beyond the borders of Germany and the multi-theme range of products, which covers the spectrum between traditional craftsmanship and innovative ideas for outdoor equipment, functional clothing, hunting sports and shooting sports. In 2024, the IWA OutdoorClassics celebrated its 50th anniversary.
