Back for the third year, Switchback at The Running Event (TRE) 2024 – taking place in Austin, TX – will unite outdoor and run specialty brands and retailers under one roof. Switchback Spring 2025 will be the inaugural standalone Switchback event and will welcome the outdoor industry to Nashville for three days of business, learning, and connection.
Hosted by Diversified Communications and led by an experienced outdoor industry team, Switchback creates a dedicated gathering place for the outdoor industry and everyone who comprises it.
Switchback exhibitors will connect with key specialty retailers in a dynamic, interactive exhibit hall. Dedicated time for meetings and show floor events will create endless opportunity for business and relationship building.
Available to exhibiting brands at both Switchback at TRE and Switchback Spring, educational sessions will cover industry topics like current challenges, market trends, leadership, and more.
Dedicated time for connection will happen intentionally throughout both events. This may include a platform to schedule meetings and connect with attendees, areas for meetings and serendipitous conversations, and onsite celebrations and events.
Switchback at TRE and Switchback Spring pack value into just three days. With both events centrally located in Austin and Nashville, exhibitors will access key retailers, make industry connections, and gain new insights—all in an accessible location and a short amount of time.
