Conference & Expo
The NIRSA Conference & Expo brings together campus rec professionals, students, and vendors from across North America for four days of inspirational learning and networking.

NIRSA Regional Conferences
NIRSA comprises seven geographic regions, many of which host annual or biennial conferences. These events are centered around education and networking for NIRSA members within a specific region. Exhibitors will see a wide range of campus rec job titles at regional conferences: students, coordinators, managers, directors, and more!
While these events are smaller than the NIRSA Conference, they are highly focused on relationship building. Purchasing a table at a regional expo is a phenomenal way to connect with the NIRSA family at a more localized level.
Other Events
Occasionally, exhibition opportunities arise at NIRSA events outside of the Conference & Expo and Regional Conferences. There may be space for your company to engage NIRSA members from a pop-up tent on the sideline of a sports tournament, from a table at a targeted institute, or even virtually at an online event.
