In this episode of The Side Hustle Squad Podcast, I sit down with Kris Kiser, President and CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute and the driving force behind Equip Exposition, to discuss everything happening at the industry’s biggest event.
We dive into what attendees can expect at Equip Expo 2026 in Louisville, Kentucky, October 20–23, including new features, expanded hands-on experiences, networking opportunities, and how the show continues to break attendance records and evolve each year. We also discuss the future of Equip and the major announcement that the show will begin a two-city rotation in 2029, bringing Equip to Orlando, Florida for the first time.
Whether you’re a contractor, dealer, manufacturer, or entrepreneur in the green industry, this episode provides an inside look at where the industry is headed, why Equip continues to grow, and how you can maximize your experience at this year’s show.
