What is ALPS OUTDOOR SUMMIT?

This outdoor event has been held in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture since 2023 under the concept of "LOVE CRAFTMANSHIP." It is held every year to highlight the craftsmanship of camping and mountain climbing gear and to liven up the global outdoor market.

The motto for this year's event, which marks the second time it has been held, is "Thank you to the mountains."

The reason for holding the event in Matsumoto, the gateway to the Northern Alps, is to face the assets and resources of mountains. We will not only face the good side, but also the challenges. Mountains and camping. This is the second event that straddles two fields, focusing on the craftsmanship of gear and expressing gratitude to the mountains.

At the event, we create and support a space where mountain and outdoor related manufacturers (camping/mountain climbing), makers, buyers, dealers, media, and users can connect with each other in a cross-sectional manner.

Event period: Friday, October 4th to Sunday, October 6th, 2024

Period: October 4th, 5th, and 6th, 2024 * October 4th is press and trade day. Those involved in the outdoor industry can enter for free.

Time: 10:00-17:00
