Brays Island
Sporting Lifestyle Showcase 2025

NOVEMBER 7, 8, & 9

Three Days. Seventy Vendors. One Sporting Lifestyle Showcase.

Come for the Extraordinary Experience

The Brays Island Sporting Lifestyle Showcase is an exclusive three-day private shopping and exhibition experience bringing together nearly 70 premier sporting and outdoor lifestyle vendors from around the world. Hosted at the Brays Island Plantation Gun Club, the Showcase spans three elegantly designed tents arranged in a striking triangular configuration.

Within this setting, guests will explore a curated collection of offerings ranging from fine men’s and women’s apparel, custom clothing, luxury handbags, jewelry, and furs, to hunting dogs, shooting sports accessories, fishing gear, and world-class art. Highlights include vintage and new Land Rovers, conservation exhibits from The Nature Conservancy and Nemours Wildlife Foundation, collaborations with Sporting Classics Magazine, outdoor homeware, barbecue grills, equestrian gear, and curated travel opportunities—including special vendors traveling from England exclusively for this event. 

Beyond shopping, the Showcase offers a vibrant atmosphere with live music on a central stage surrounded by gathering tables, beautifully lit for evening enjoyment. Guests will experience Twilight Shopping on Saturday night — thanks to Richard and Judy Childress for sponsoring the event and providing wine for all from their Childress Vineyards, a cigar reception sponsored by Padron Cigars, and captivating live sporting dog demonstrations and training events on the Gun Club and Hunt Club properties.

A live auction featuring 20 exclusive items runs throughout the Showcase, opening Friday morning and closing Saturday night during Twilight Shopping. Together, these elements create a one-of-a-kind celebration of the sporting lifestyle — equal parts marketplace, entertainment, and fellowship.
