Golf Carting Expo & Dealer Summit to Bring Together Dealers, Manufacturers, and Consumers October 8-11, 2025
CHARLESTON, SC — The golf cart industry will make history this October with the inaugural Golf Carting Expo & Dealer Summit, the first event designed exclusively for golf cart dealers, manufacturers, and enthusiasts. Taking place October 8-11, 2025, in Charleston, South Carolina, this groundbreaking event promises to transform how the industry connects, learns, and conducts business.
“For too long, golf cart professionals have been lost in the shuffle at the PGA Show or other general outdoor recreation shows,” said Matt White, editor of Golf Carting Magazine and event co-organizer. “This industry deserves its own dedicated platform where everything from education to networking to product showcases is tailored specifically to our unique needs.”
The multi-day event combines comprehensive dealer education with extensive product exhibitions and consumer engagement opportunities. Dealers can choose between two education tracks: the Summit Pass, featuring two full days of intensive business workshops, or the Connect Pass, focusing on Friday’s practical education sessions. Both options also include plenty of networking opportunities and evening entertainment.

The dealer education curriculum addresses critical business challenges facing today’s golf cart retailers. Sessions cover topics ranging from digital marketing strategies and customer service to lithium battery technology and mobile repair services. Industry experts and successful dealer owners will lead workshops designed to provide immediately actionable insights.
“We’re not offering generic business advice,” White explained. “Every session is specifically crafted for golf cart dealers, addressing the real challenges and opportunities they face every day.”
