We had an amazing time at the National Outdoor Expo 2025!
A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, joined the excitement, and entered our competition.
You made the event unforgettable!
The National Outdoor Expo is one of the biggest outdoor community meet-ups of the year, and we gave away 13 stunning holidays in hostels on our Independent Hostels stand.
In locations like the Mull of Kintyre, Snowdonia and the North Norfolk Coast, the holidays included lots of extras, from zip wire adventures, tours of a whisky distillery, to gourmet meals at the local pub. We pulled these prizes together just for the National Outdoor Expo, thanks to the generosity of the donor hostels.
We loved meeting so many faces; some seasoned hostellers, other keen to learn all about the unique hostels, bunkhouses and camping barns we represent.
Over 800 people entered the competition and 13 won a free holiday!
Here are all the fantastic prizes that were won.
