Backstage Gear Exchange is back—and this year, it's bigger, spookier, and more hands-on than ever.
Whether you're a musician, tech, grip, stagehand, filmmaker, AV pro, or just love gear and good vibes, this is your chance to connect, shop, sell, and network with the Pacific Northwest’s creative and live event community.
This year’s event falls the day after Halloween, so we’re leaning into the theme with decorated booths, candy stations, costumes encouraged, and a few surprise treats along the way.
What to Expect:
Massive gear swap with vendors from all corners of the industry: film, music, live production, lighting, audio, and more
Stagehand Olympics – test your skills, win some bragging rights (and prizes)
Demos & Clinics from top local brands and working pros
Live music & small stage programming throughout the day
Video wall lounge and networking space
Coffee & food trucks on site to keep you fueled
Raffles, giveaways, and event-day deals
