We are celebrating 16 years since the industry’s first gathering and the development of Rendezvous into the premier educational conference for outdoor industry executives in North America. This year, we will explore the world of innovation and dig into leading- edge products, processes and trends that are becoming increasingly important to the marketplace. Despite the uncertainty that consumers and the mass retail community seem to express, the outdoor recreation economy continues to grow. Close-to-home activities endure as jobs, disposable income and free time are in shorter supply than they’ve been in a long time. Purchases of apparel, footwear and gear persist as consumers are investing their precious dollars in products that last. This positive trend seems to be continuing for the full spectrum of specialty businesses that serve recreationists who aspire to be more active in the great outdoors. During the conference, we will look into the future and examine new trends, emerging retail technologies, economic futures and the relationship consumers are developing with outdoor brands to sustain their lifestyle choices. The information and topics explored this week will deepen our understanding of emerging issues that directly impact outdoor businesses, and we encourage all of you to absorb as much from the conference discussions as you can.

Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan and Thomas Rhett will christen the re-branded gathering when they perform in the Catskills June 12-14, 2020. Kelsea Ballerini, Gabby Barrett, Blanco Brown, HARDY, Cole Swindell and The Cadillac Three will be also among the acts to perform at the new incarnation of the Greene County gathering that launched in 2013. More acts will be announced. Attendees this year should also expect an additional stage of acts and a revised layout for the grounds. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. on Dec. 13 at www.trailblazerfest.com. All of this is according to a Thursday morning announcement from Live Nation, the new owner of the festival. Regarding the name change, Brian O'Connell, president of country touring for Live Nation, told the Journal that “We felt that a re-brand was essential. We wanted to put our own stamp on it… We want to take the best of what has happened at Taste of Country previously and we want to improve on it.” The TrailBlazer becomes the second music festival, along with Mountain Jam, to originate at Hunter Mountain prior to Live Nation becoming involved.
