Key Takeaways:
The Northwest Aviation Conference & Trade Show is an annual, multi-faceted event held in Puyallup, Washington, combining a trade show, educational symposium, and reunion, celebrating its 40th occurrence this year.
It features dozens of aviation businesses, organizations, flight schools, and colleges showcasing exhibits, providing networking opportunities, and offering information on various aviation facets.
The conference includes over 75 hours of safety seminars, a career fair for job seekers, and presentations by guest speakers, such as aviation author and educator Rod Machado.
This large-scale event typically attracts over 10,000 attendees to its 122,000 square feet of aviation displays.
Part trade show, part educational symposium, part reunion. That best describes the Northwest Aviation Conference & Trade Show held every February at the Puyallup Fairgrounds (that’s pronounced Pew-YAL-up for the unfamiliar) in Washington state.
The event will take place Saturday and Sunday. The show missed a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so this year marks the 40th event.
