CANCON Creator Program — CANCON West
Cover CANCON. Get the Access to Do It Right.
CANCON is a live-fire event built around suppressed shooting, sponsor experiences, and hands-on access to firearms, suppressors, optics, gear, and industry people. The Creator Program gives selected creators and media the access and support to cover it well — for attendees, sponsors, vendors, and the broader shooting community. Applications are currently open for CANCON West in Boulder City, NV.
Who This Is For
The program is built around creators and media who already speak to this audience, or who bring a clear, specific CANCON angle.
You Might Be a Fit If You’re…
- A creator with an engaged audience in firearms, suppressors, optics, tactical gear, preparedness, hunting, training, outdoor culture, or related enthusiast spaces
- Media, a podcaster, videographer, photographer, writer, or social-first creator with a clear CANCON angle
- Someone who can connect coverage to ticket interest, sponsor value, vendor visibility, or long-term CANCON awareness
What Selected Creators May Receive
- Media credential or creator access, depending on fit and availability
- Interview coordination with CANCON staff, sponsors, exhibitors, instructors, or attendees when appropriate
- Approved logos, handles, hashtags, links, and campaign tracking tools
