LOUISVILLE, Ky (May 30, 2016) — The second largest off-road industry show in the country, the
Unlimited Off-Road Expo, roars into the Kentucky Exposition Center June 3-5.
The action-packed event features off-road vehicles, parts and accessories, and outdoor and adventure
gear for camping, kayaking, biking, hiking and more. Over 200 off-road and adventure lifestyle exhibitors
will be in attendance offering special show deals, new product introductions, manufacturer presentations,
raffles and giveaways — including a 2016 Ford F-150 pickup truck. Visitors are also invited to enjoy the
beer garden, food trucks, DJ and music.
“The Off-Road Expo is extremely popular because it is a participation event,” said Anthony Leachman,
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Kentucky State Fair Board. “Owners can bring their
off-road vehicle and hit the five acre obstacle course, join in the underground Mega Cavern night crawl, or
enter the Show n’ Shine contest and compete for $2,500 in cash.”
Crowd favorites include:
— Five acre public obstacle course. Visitors can bring their 4×4 vehicle and hit the course, complete
with mud, jumps, rock ledges and more.
— “Lil” monster trucks kids show. Drivers six to 17 years in age team up and race small scale
monster trucks.
— Mega trucks, rock bouncers, Ultra4 racers and SxSs perform off-road stunt shows and
head-to-head races.
— Ian Johnson live Jeep build. Crowds see first-hand the skills, tricks and ideas of Ian and his team
as they build the ultimate expedition rig.
— Show n’ Shine competition. Visitors can show off their vehicle and compete for $2,500 in cash.
