Quick Facts
Varsity Golf Shows, producers of popular golf shows
throughout the United States, brought their successful brand of
consumer golf shows to Dallas in 2020, expanding their reach
north and bringing their tried-and-true formula of outstanding
deals, free giveaways, free lessons, fun interactive events and
quality exhibitors to Dallas’s vibrant golf community.
Golfers packed into the hall over the course of the weekend,
eager to take advantage of special offers on local golf courses,
products and services from over 90 exhibitors; fun skills contests
that gave attendees the chance to win clubs, free rounds and
dream stay-and-play vacations; free lessons from top PGA
pros; a driving range lined with representatives of all the major
manufacturers; and a fantastic giveaway package for all attendees
that included up to four free rounds of golf.
Varsity marketed the show via a significant media campaign
that included advertisements in print, television and radio, on-site
broadcasts during the most popular morning news programs,
live remotes from the show floor, plus in-studio appearances and
interviews by show organizers. In addition, e-mail blasts by local
golf courses and other companies, plus a significant social media
campaign, helped promote the show to new audiences.
The 2020 DFW Golf Show was made possible by the support
of its sponsors, the volunteers who gave their time to make
the show a success, the involvement of the exhibitors and
enthusiasm of the golfing public.
