The Northwest Arkansas Premier Boat & Sport Expo: Fun for the Whole Family

Motorcycles on Display for the First Time
Free Play at Downstream Casino with paid admission

The 5th Annual NWA Premier Boat & Sport Expo will once again be at the Hammons Convention Center in Rogers, AR February 19-21. And we have more new things to see and do than ever before.

You’ll see every type of watercraft imaginable—fishing boats, cruisers, deck boats, personal watercraft, ski boats, pontoons, yachts and more. And this year not only can you look & buy an ATV or utility vehicle but we’ve added motorcycles, go-carts and scooters for the first time ever. Plus with every ticket you get a $20 Free Play coupon to Downstream Casino.

We have some fantastic door prizes again this year – like a Caribbean Cruise, free scuba lessons, gift certificates, hotel room with dinner at Downstream Casino & Resort, a weekend stay at Embassy Suites, wakeboard lessons and much more. You must enter to win and you need not be present when we draw the lucky winners. Check out all the prizes here.

If you’re attending our show from out of town, our host hotel The Embassy Suites (right next door to the Hammons Center) has special rates just for you. Click here to go directly to the booking site.

Last year, we had two very special attractions for the kids and we’re bringing them back again. Jack the Magician and Willie the Balloon Man will be on hand both on Saturday & Sunday from noon-4pm. We’re also proud to again offer the M.I.L.K. program with our partners the Czapliskie/Mills Agency – Farmers Insurance. M.I.L.K. is the Managing Information on Lost Kids and you can have your child registered to the national “Amber Alert” database FREE at the NWA Boat & Sport Expo – see more info here.

In 2009 one of our most popular attractions was the helicopter rides. So its back–thanks to Windwalker Air, if you’ve ever wanted to fly in a copter this is your chance. Even better, Windwalker is donating a portion of each ride ticket to Children’s House. See more info here.

We’ll have food, beer, wine and kids meals so come make a day of it. Remember a portion of your admission fee benefits Children’s House. Learn more about our favorite charity.
