SEATTLE-After setting records for attendance and exhibitors in 2009, the 11th Annual Seattle Golf Show returns to Qwest Field Events Center February 12-14, 2010.
The dates are nearly a month earlier than past shows. Producers Owen Hoskinson and John Tipping said they have locked in early February dates at Qwest Field Events Center for the next several years to help build and promote the Seattle Golf Show as the "official"
kick-off to the golf season in the Northwest.
The 2009 show proved to be a major event for the region's golfers-- recording a jump of 17% in attendance and the addition of several high-profile exhibitors who will be returning in 2010. According to Hoskinson, paid attendance has increased over 50% since
2007.
The three-day event--the biggest consumer golf show on the West Coast--will feature the return of the popular Puetz Golf Superstores' "try-and-buy demo zone" with every major manufacturer represented. Other attractions include a wide variety of golf products and destinations, contests with big prizes, free rounds of golf and activities for the entire family.
"Despite a challenging economy, our exhibitors were extremely pleased with sales and the level of exposure they received at the 2009 show," said Tipping. "This show is an important tool in reaching consumers in the Northwest's biggest golf market."
The Seattle Golf Show is the official show of the Northwest golf community with support from the Washington State Golf Association, the Pacific Northwest Golf Association and the Pacific Northwest Section PGA.
