EXHIBITOR INFORMATION

We would like to invite you to participate as an exhibitor at the 2022 Extreme Weather Ready Expo. This award-winning expo is the largest public event of its type in the nation. Topics to be discussed at the expo include weather forecasting, the outlook for the 2022 hurricane season, updated evacuation information, making a family disaster plan, and information about power restoration after a storm.

Hurricanes Harvey and Imelda clearly demonstrated that Southeast Texas reminded us all of the need to be prepared for a major hurricane. By being an exhibitor, you can provide valuable information and services to expo attendees while extreme weather preparedness is fresh on their minds. This event continues to be free to the public, thanks to the generous support of its sponsors and exhibitor fees paid by you.
