Official AH Get Together In Nashville During Safari Club International (SCI) Convention 2025

[Fixfire]

Now it will be even harder to get a booth after what has happened! SCI broke records again.

As a resident of Nashville, it’s great to hear of the success of the Music City location!! Am I correct that it’s a 10 year commitment?
Seemed to me there were more non related hunting booths this year - furs, coins, jewelry, etc. Maybe open these up to our long-time Outfitters friends?? I know, this may alienate wife/women contingency!!

Philip do you know if the rumor is true that SCI signed on to stay in Nashville for several more years?

I was under the impression it was moving to New Orleans next year.

After the train wreck in Atlanta I won’t be back to DSC until it’s back in Texas or somewhere more hospitable than Atlanta! The board wants you to believe it’s all about the weather (which was a factor). The weather Thursday was very nice and the attendance was horrible! I’ll go to Nashville next year and to Salt Lake sportsman show!
Multiple of my friends and exhibitors have told me they will not go back to Atlanta and some say they are done with DSC period.

I look forward to Nashville and Africahunting.com dinner next year it really a highlight of the conference! This site brings together the “Salt of the Earth” people from the hunting world.

Thank you to @BnC 04 for organizing. We enjoyed meeting a few folks and putting faces with screen names.

Here's a photo from the get-together. Great hat and safari jacket, @Tom Leoni, appreciate the style!

I wish we all had taken more photos! We also had the chance to meet @AZDAVE and @Scanos and @ArmyAV8tor and several others. A good time for sure!

We enjoyed the dinner and meeting people we didn't know and talking with some old friends. Look forward to next years get together.

SCI will be in Nashville through 2033. It is a great location!

Yes it will stay through at least 2033. Most of the exhibitor booths are occupied by long time exhibitors. They are allocated on a points system. The longer you exhibit and the more you donate the more points you have. This is why it is hard for a new group to get in. Fingers crossed for some of our friends!

Thanks Philip! It is a great location. Seems to be as safe or safer than any large city in the USA.

Fun loving town while staying reasonably safe. Lot's of great alternative lodging options too.

Parking has always been straight forward and easy for us. Only thing I would change if I could for the venue would be a bit more space for more vendors and more seating to have lunch right there at the show. Although there are good options if one walks out across the street
