IPM 2019, West Nipissing – Become an Exhibitor / Vendor

Please join us for the 102nd International Plowing Match and Rural Expo (IPM) being held in Verner, West Nipissing from September 17 to 21, 2019

The IPM is the largest outdoor event of its kind in North America. Approximately 75 acres of fertile farmers’ fields are transformed into a Tented City with temporary streets, entertainment stages and special features including antiques & heritage, education, lifestyles, quilting and regional exhibits. There is so much to see and do! Surrounding Tented City are hundreds of acres of free parking for visitors, an RV Park, and of course, the competitive Plowing Fields. Within a couple of weeks after the event, the land is returned to its original condition for growing crops again.

For our expected 75,000+ visitors, we believe our exhibitors and corporate partners are the #1 attraction within Tented City. The IPM can provide great opportunities for companies and organizations to showcase their products and services. Our exhibitors include equipment and vehicle dealers/manufacturers, agricultural & rural service providers, agricultural & community non-profits, food vendors, artisans, home improvement and décor vendors, apparel suppliers, and more!
