Hunting gear and accessories.
Law enforcement products and services.
Firearm barrels, grips, stocks, feeder equipment, and other components.

Where is ShotShow 2025?
The Sphere, Las Vegas
ShotShow 2025 will be held at the Venetian Expo and Caesar’s Forum in Las Vegas, a 2 million square foot convention center located in Paradise, Nevada — close to the Vegas strip and just across the street from the “Sphere.”
Traveling to ShotShow 2025
The Venetian Expo + Caesar’s Forum is located less than four miles from Harry Reid International Airport and should be about a 15-minute ride.
Once in Las Vegas, ShotShow will be providing a free shuttle bus service to and from official hotels (see below) and The Venetian Expo. You can find a detailed shuttle schedule here.
A ShotShow badge also provides unlimited rides on Las Vegas’ monorail system, which provides a fun and convenient way to travel to and from the show, lodging, and dinner (and maybe even a few of Vegas’ other iconic sights along the way…)
Lodging for ShotShow 2025
As you might expect, Vegas offers plenty of options for lodging. However, hotels can fill up during major events like ShotShow, and we recommend reserving your accommodations as soon as possible if you haven’t already.
The convention center is immediately adjacent to The Venetian Las Vegas. A few other options within a reasonable walking distance of the convention center include:
ShotShow offers discounts for some hotels through the onPeak hotels program: you can learn more here.
Food Near ShowShow 2025
Of course, Las Vegas has nearly unlimited options for food! In the nearby Venetian Resort alone, you can find over 60 eating options, all fully searchable here.
If you get a chance to venture a bit further from the show, Eater Las Vegas provides a helpful breakdown of 38 essential Vegas area food stops here (all within a quick Uber ride of ShotShow).
