Outdoor Demonstration Area

The walk from the indoor exhibits to the demo area is a short business trip.

One of GIE+EXPO's most attractive features for exhibitors and visitors alike is the 19-acre outdoor demonstration area. The Kentucky Exposition Center is the only facility in the U.S. that offers such a large outdoor turf area just a few steps from the indoor exhibits. See the new products indoors; then try them for yourself and compare them with the competition in the demo park.

Outdoor Demo Area Hours:
Thursday, Oct. 24 — 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 25 — 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Many exhibitors host competitions and games to encourage spirited use of their newest products. Plan to have fun and come away with a few grass stains during GIE+EXPO! Wear your most comfortable work shoes; there's a lot of ground to cover and grass to mow at this show.
