Athletic Business Media has made the difficult decision to cancel AB Show 2020.
This decision was made in consultation with key stakeholders and our partners, the Medical Fitness Association, the National Alliance for Youth Sports and the National Intramural-Recreational Sports Association. “The decision to cancel did not come easily and was ultimately made in the best interest of the health and safety of our attendees, exhibitors, speakers, partners and staff,” said Shawn Gahagan, Athletic Business president.
On behalf of Athletic Business, MFA, NAYS and NIRSA, we thank our attendees, exhibitors and speakers for your patience, loyalty and partnership as we move through these challenging times together. Please stay healthy and safe. We cannot wait to see you in San Antonio, Oct. 27-30, 2021.

Athletic Business is, by far, one of the best shows that I have attended. The AB staff provides a truly positive experience, timely communication, and a friendly demeanor. We will always continue to attend the AB Show; it's actually the event that provides us with the highest engagement and leads each year.

It was a very productive trip for me. I ended up meeting with a total of 24 vendors and have already done business with a few, have demo models being shipped from a couple, and intend to do business with a few others.
