Great American Outdoor Show

The NRA Foundation is excited to announce its fundraising events at the upcoming 2025 Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg, PA, which runs from Feb. 1 through 9. The first fundraising event, however, kicks off a day earlier on Friday, Jan. 31, with the highly anticipated Sportsmen’s Auction.

Following that, the Wall of Guns will be available for viewing and participation throughout the entire duration of the show, offering attendees the opportunity to support the NRA Foundation by purchasing a raffle ticket for a chance to win one of the featured firearms. These events are a key part of the Foundation’s efforts to raise critical funds for conservation, education and the protection of our Second Amendment rights.

The NRA Foundation Sportsmen’s Banquet and Auction serves as the exciting kickoff to the Great American Outdoor Show. The Sportsmen’s Auction will be held in the PA Preferred Ballroom at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex. The evening’s entertainment begins at 5:30 p.m., offering attendees a chance to win custom firearms, exclusive merchandise and unique hunting experiences—all while enjoying dinner among fellow Second Amendment enthusiasts. The fundraiser supports national, state and local programs dedicated to preserving America’s shooting heritage. Individual tickets are $100 each and table packages are available starting at $1,500. Purchase your tickets early to secure your spot.

The NRA Foundation’s ever-popular Wall of Guns returns to the Great American Outdoor Show this year thanks to Weatherby, the official Wall of Guns sponsor. Located at booth 39 in the complex’s main hallway, the event will run each day of the show. At $10 a ticket, a winner is drawn for every 100 tickets sold and may choose a firearm from more than 40 different makes and models displayed on “The Wall.” There are several different ticket packages, ranging from $10 to $1,000, some of which include a limited-edition Wall of Guns t-shirt, donated by Nine Line Apparel. All net proceeds from the Wall of Guns benefit The NRA Foundation, the country’s leading charitable organization in support of the shooting sports.

The Great American Outdoor Show celebrates the cherished outdoor traditions of millions of Americans and their families. Spanning 650,000 square feet, the event showcases over 1,000 exhibitors, including top shooting manufacturers, outfitters, boat and RV dealers, hunting and fishing retailers and more.
