Final Call for Aircraft Exhibitors for 2020 Ag Aviation Expo

 Join us at the 2020 Ag Aviation Expo in Savannah Dec. 7–10 for the premier trade show for agricultural aviation, great networking opportunities and a terrific lineup of speakers and events! Exhibiting is a great opportunity to get your company in front of the agricultural aviation industry and reach a targeted and nationwide audience of aerial applicators in North America; an audience that is responsible for applying 28% of crop protection products to commercial cropland in the U.S.

 

Everyone loves Savannah and as an exhibitor, the Ag Aviation Expo offers you the opportunity to network with 1,600 operators, pilots and other attendees associated with the industry.

 

We are currently placing aircraft on the NAAA Trade Show floor. Savannah is a popular aircraft destination! Floor space for aircraft is first come, first served and any additional aircraft that don’t fit in the hall, can be placed outside in Bryan Square. Please contact Lindsay Barber if you plan to exhibit an aircraft at the Ag Aviation Expo, as well as the number of aircraft that you plan to exhibit.  

 

The aircraft exhibitor cost is $610 for each aircraft, plus the cost of the booth size of your choice (i.e. 10’x10’, 10’x20’ or an island attached or across from your aircraft space). All 2020 Exhibitor pricing is located here.

 

Aircraft Exhibitor Schedule:

  • Saturday, Dec. 5 – Meeting at 4 p.m. for pilots who are flying aircraft in on Sunday.
  • Sunday, Dec. 6 (early morning) – Aircraft land onto Westin property and move into convention center
