The 2025 NAMM Show will run for 5 days straight
To some, the last few years have shown the NAMM buzz to be dwindling. With the absence of Fender, Gibson and PRS in recent years, guitar fans have started to wonder what the music gear exhibition really has to offer them. But that’s all set to change.
Following Fender’s announcement that it will be returning to NAMM in 2025, the show’s organisers have announced their own surprise. The event will be expanding to run over five days.

The additional days will allow attendees to partake in educational programs, workshops and networking receptions. There will also be a host of awards, including the TEC Awards, Parnelli Awards and the SheRocks Awards.

“The NAMM Show continues to evolve based on our members’ needs, and we have heard loud and clear that we need more opportunities to network and extend our robust education offerings, while also focusing on the core exhibit hours and buying power that are the cornerstone of the week,” John Mlynczak, president and CEO of NAMM, explains.
“The 2025 NAMM Show will kick off five days and nights with a schedule that ensures each community and attendee can have the personalized experience they need to be successful in their business and profession,” he continues.
An extensive list of 2025 NAMM exhibitors has also been shared. Not only will Fender be returning, but Gibson and PRS are also set to attend. It’s unclear yet, though, whether they’ll be exhibiting. Elsewhere, there will be exhibits from Apple, Sony, Yamaha and more.
But that’s only the beginning; NAMM’s full schedule is set to drop on 4 November. NAMM will also be sharing news of exciting musical performances, including the Yamaha Concert Series and Bnds@NAMM shows.
Tickets aren’t yet on-sale, but you can sign up to be notified when NAMM 2025’s registration opens.
