Welcome to the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo

This pure fishing show is designed by anglers for anglers with the simple goals of promoting and teaching fishing. This annual event attracts thousands of anglers to the Niagara Falls Convention Center (NFCC) in downtown Niagara Falls, NY. The Expo runs Thursday, February 13 through Sunday, February 16, 2025. Tickets are now on sale!

With hundreds of hours of fishing education available for attendees to choose from and over 170 booths of fishing-related exhibitors, the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo is the largest fishing show in New York State and among the largest in the Great Lakes.

With a wide range of offerings for all angling interests and skill levels, the Expo welcomes anglers of all ages and experience levels to attend.

Fishing Education

Fishing Education is what the Expo is built around and what makes it unique. The quality and quantity of the classes and speakers is what differentiates this "Teaching Fishing" show from all other shows. Included in the general admission price for each attendee, is the opportunity to become a better angler by choosing from a robust curriculum of seminars. The seminars are presented by Expert Anglers who share their expertise with the angling community.

Separate curriculums target fishing for Walleye, Bass, Trout, Salmon, Perch, and Musky, along with Fly Fishing, Kayak Fishing, Open Water Trolling, and Marine Electronics. Attendees can choose from a wide range of "Fishing" education depending upon their Angling knowledge. Offerings are available for Inexperienced Anglers to Tournament level Anglers as well as courses specifically designed for Youth. The average 2024 attendee took the opportunity to attend eight seminars while at the Expo.
