Overland Expo SoCal
Outdoor lifestyle pavilion
The Outdoor Lifestyle Pavilion is a NEW dedicated space for outdoor brands to connect directly with thousands of passionate consumers who are actively seeking high-quality outdoor gear, services, and experiences. Unlike B2B events, Overland Expo SoCal allows you to engage directly with end-users, build brand loyalty, and gather real-time feedback from your target audience.
The event attracts a highly engaged audience of outdoor enthusiasts, overlanders, and adventure travelers who are ready to purchase and invest in premium products.
What is overlanding?
o·ver·land
/ˈōvərˌland/
VERB – “Overlanding” has taken on a variety of different meanings in recent years. To us, overlanding is self-sufficient vehicle or adventure motorcycle travel where the journey itself is the goal.
At its core, overlanding is about exploration. Whether traveling by truck or motorcycle, overlanding is about riding the road less traveled and immersing yourself in the environments and cultures you encounter.

Cap on Monday for the tools. Bed wide open Saturday for the trail. SOLO from @VenturousTruckTops gives you both. 🛻
One person job, no tools needed. Pull the PolyFuse panels, open up the MOLLE-ready rack for your gear, and slide the panels into the bed. Truly modular, built for the workweek and the weekend.

Ready means never getting stuck for long. 🧭
We`re closing out the 2026 Ultimate Overland Vehicle series with the gear that keeps you self-reliant when it counts. @FreedomRecoveryGear, @Wilco_Offroad, @onXOffroad, @RotopaXOfficial and @ForrestTool cover every angle: a full recovery kit and traction boards for the tough spots, a sturdy hitchgate for carrying a spare tire, trusted navigation off the grid, water and fuel storage, and a multipurpose tool kit for whatever the trail throws at you.
A build that proves what`s possible when a proven vehicle meets the best in adventure gear.
The 2026 Ultimate Overland Vehicle heads to the Bring a Trailer auction this fall—and every dollar raised goes straight to the @OverlandExpoFoundation. Stay tuned for details.
