BUILDING A FIVE STAR MILITARIA SHOW
The fourth annual Greater New Orleans Militaria Show, LLC will be a 250 plus table event featuring military antiques, military collectibles, vintage weapons and museum exhibits as well as educational displays from numerous time periods and nations. The show will be located at the beautiful Castine Center in Mandeville, Louisiana on October 12th & 13th of 2024. The Greater New Orleans Militaria Show is now brought to you solely by Old Patriot Militaria, LLC and we plan to make our fourth annual show the largest and most ambitious show to date. We can expand the show to nearly 400 tables and we are going to “shoot for the moon” and do our best to get to that number. Our fourth annual show will build on our partnership with the Saint Tammany Parish Department of Animal Services and feature dealers from more than twenty states! Our show already hosts some of the most well known, respected names in our hobby and more have already committed to joining us in 2024. The focus of our fourth annual Greater New Orleans Militaria Show is to expand the amount of dealer tables as close to capacity as possible and involve more local and regional museums. We will expand our philanthropic outreach with the Saint Tammany Department of Animal Services in order to provide more financial and material donations. All the while continuing to establish this show as a five-star event centered around the buying, selling, display and preservation of military antiques. Our 2023 show saw over 220 tables filled with dealers from 20 states and more than 1,000 visitors through the doors! This is a 33% increase over the amount of visitors in 2022 and 55% increase in the amount of visitors that attended our first show in 2021. Needless to say, the Greater New Orleans Militaria Show is now “on the map” for military shows and is now a “destination show” for dealers and collectors from across the country. We will continue to expand further into the realm of history education, philanthropy and historic preservation, while welcoming seasoned and novice collectors alike into our hobby. Our ultimate goal is to develop the Greater New Orleans Militaria Show into a true military history event that becomes the “MAX” Show of the South. In our unyielding efforts to do this, the 2024 Greater New Orleans Militaria Show will not only feature world class military antiques available to all who attend, but will also be an educational and historically significant military history event worthy of both national and international attention.
MOVING OUR HOBBY FORWARD
The Greater New Orleans Militaria Show, our dealers and our partners are dedicated to the education, preservation and heartfelt appreciation of military history. We accomplish our goal by encouraging and actively promoting the display, exhibition, conservation and collecting of historic military artifacts. Many of our dealers and partners are some of the most trusted and recognized names in the world of military antiques. This unquestionable knowledge, experience and passion for our hobby has led to a number of us being published in various books, journals and other periodicals, with many of us continuing to be featured not only in print, but also on several television shows.
