Why Advertise?
The SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo is the “start of the aviation / airshow season” in North America. According to many of our exhibitors, SUN ‘n FUN is a “selling” show. Many of our guests have an interest in new technologies and innovative products and many are coming out of a long winter with limited flight-time and pent-up buying interests. They come to SUN ‘n FUN because it is the first to find what they are looking for!
SUN ‘n FUN offers a variety of opportunities that impact the “purchase ready” pilots and aviation enthusiasts who attend each year. The variety of advertising media enables each exhibitor to design a marketing program which will support the investment each has made as an exhibitor at the show and achieve the results they expect.
Please download the 2022 SUN ‘n FUN Advertising Packet, it includes an “Advertising Opportunities & Information” section to this packet. It provides a bit more detail on the products included as well as our current statistics. We hope you will find this information useful when determining your advertising needs for the coming year.
