The National Rifle Association of America is pleased to announce MidwayUSA as the official sponsor of the 2025 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits to be held in Atlanta, Georgia, on April 25-27. MidwayUSA has been a longtime sponsor of NRA’s annual flagship event.

“We’re pleased to continue our support of the NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits and look forward to joining our customers in Atlanta,” said Adam Augustine, MidwayUSA VP of eCommerce.

The 154th NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits will take place at the Georgia World Congress Center. Tens of thousands of dues-paying NRA members and their families will gather for a can’t-miss celebration of freedom and American values. The 14-acre exhibit hall will feature the latest guns and gear from the firearm industry’s top companies. A jam-packed schedule of events also includes educational seminars, exciting demonstrations, receptions, and fundraising banquets to secure the future of Second Amendment rights.

“We are thankful for MidwayUSA and Larry and Brenda Potterfield for once again standing shoulder-to-shoulder with NRA in protecting the Second Amendment, and for their generous support of the celebration of freedom that is the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits,” said Doug Hamlin, NRA Executive Vice President and CEO. “I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Larry and Brenda Potterfield for more than 35 years, and they are selfless and most generous in their long-standing and ongoing support of the National Rifle Association of America and its mission.”

On Saturday, April 26, Country Music’s most electrifying duo, Big & Rich, will headline the Freedom Experience presented by Glock, Inc. and contributing sponsor Sturm, Ruger & Co. With chart-topping hits like Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy), Lost in This Moment, and Comin’ to Your City, Big Kenny and John Rich know how to throw a party! But this is more than a concert. It’s a celebration of freedom and the Second Amendment – a tribute to the men and women of the armed forces fighting for our freedoms, law enforcement protecting our communities, and the NRA members fighting every day to defend our rights. Tickets are on sale now.

The 2025 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits officially opens at 9:00 AM on April 25. NRA members and immediate family receive free entry. Non-members can join online or at the door for immediate access. Please visit nraam.org for more information and to purchase tickets for special events.
