About Ultimate Hunting Show - Detroit
Ultimate Hunting Show - Detroit, formerly Outdoorama, is ShowSpan's late-winter consumer show for hunters, anglers and boaters at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi, Michigan. It brings together outfitters, boat and dock dealers, and hunting and fishing exhibitors, with seminars, Big Buck Night and a trout pond.
Ultimate Hunting Show - Detroit 2027
Ultimate Hunting Show - Detroit runs February 25–28, 2027 at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace, 46100 Grand River Ave, Novi, Michigan.
What it is
ShowSpan, Inc. produces this consumer show for people who hunt, fish and spend time on the water. Until 2026 it ran as Outdoorama, and the organiser's site still uses that name in places. The floor combines an Outfitter's Expo area for booking hunting and fishing trips with a display of boats, docks, lifts and marine accessories.
Hours
The organiser's schedule page lists four days, with late starts on the first two:
- Thursday, February 25: 1 PM – 8 PM
- Friday, February 26: noon – 8 PM
- Saturday, February 27: 10 AM – 8 PM
- Sunday, February 28: 10 AM – 5 PM
The site notes that its detail pages still carry 2026 information until the 2027 programme is posted, so check hours closer to the date. On-site parking is paid and cash only at the gate; it can also be bought online in advance.
