PACKFIRE Returns to Outdoor Media Summit 2026, Sponsoring the New Gear Campout and Debuting New Products

September 22, 2026

September 22, 2026 /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ — PACKFIRE is excited to announce it will return to the Outdoor Media Summit 2026, the premier conference for outdoor brands, media, and marketers, taking place September 28-30, 2026 at the Crowne Plaza Resort in Asheville, NC. This year, PACKFIRE is stepping up its presence as an official sponsor of the New Gear Campout and will showcase its expanded product lineup at the New Gear Speed Date.

The Outdoor Media Summit (OMS) brings together leaders in the outdoor industry to connect, collaborate, and shape the future of outdoor media and marketing. As it returns for its 10th year, PACKFIRE’s expanded role at OMS 2026 — as a Campout sponsor and a featured brand at the Speed Date — underscores its growth, its commitment to innovation, and its deepening ties across the outdoor community.

CAMPOUT CONNECTIONS

This year, PACKFIRE is sponsoring the New Gear Campout, the intimate pre-conference gear-testing gathering that combines networking with the essence of outdoor adventure, held the evening before the conference kicks off in Asheville. PACKFIRE is fueling the night with s’mores supplies and fire pits, keeping the group warm, fed, and gathered around the glow. Founder Jeff Polke will be on-site throughout the Campout, connecting with media, creators, and fellow brands.

NEW GEAR SPEED DATE

PACKFIRE will also take part in the New Gear Speed Date, where media professionals and influencers get the first look at the latest outdoor innovations. This year’s showcase will feature the new PACKFIRE products launched in 2026:

• Ember 10” Smokeless Table Top Fire Pit
• Spark Ranger
• Splitter Kit
• LNT Ash Pan

Alongside the new lineup, attendees can get hands-on with the original PACKFIRE flat-packing fire pit and the full Clearburn™ firewood and fuel collection. Connect with PACKFIRE at OMS 2026 to meet the team and see everything the brand has launched this year.

ABOUT PACKFIRE

A spark of inspiration has turned into a full-blown blaze with the launch of PACKFIRE, an outdoor gear brand born from decades of experience and a passion for bringing people together around the fire. Since introducing its first product — a full-sized flat-packing smokeless fire pit engineered for portability and performance — PACKFIRE has grown its lineup with a full family of fire-focused gear and fuel.

“We set out to create more than just a fire pit,” says Polke. “We wanted a centerpiece for connection—where stories are shared, laughter lingers, and the glow of the day carries on.”

PACKFIRE’s original, flagship product is a 22” foldable smokeless fire pit that packs down into a custom backpack, perfect for beach days, road trips, camping, or tailgates. With its innovative and patent pending design, it’s built to go anywhere, fire up fast, and clean up without hassle.

FEATURES AT A GLANCE:

• Clearburn™ Smokeless Technology: Recirculates heat and reburns smoke for a cleaner, hotter, nearly smokeless fire.
• QuickDraw™ Tool-Free Setup: Pops up in seconds with no tools required.
• Fold-Flat™ Design: Packs into a backpack for ultimate portability.
• Durability: Made from Stainless Steel & Aluminum PACKFIRE is built to last and easy to carry.

AVAILABILITY:

PACKFIRE’s full lineup — including the original fire pit, the new Ember 10” Smokeless Table Top Fire Pit, Spark Ranger, Splitter Kit, LNT Ash Pan, and the Clearburn™ firewood and fuel collection — is available via our web site (www.packfire.com), Amazon, and a growing network of qualified retail partners.

With its roots in innovation and deep ties to the outdoor community, PACKFIRE is poised to become the go-to brand for modern adventurers looking to elevate their outdoor experience—without sacrificing portability or performance. Not being ones to sit back and relax, PACKFIRE will continue to innovate with a vision to deliver fresh new products to enhance the outdoor experience.
