The shows arent bad. Nothing huge....its all relative, its nowhere the size of the show at the Big-E, but its bigger than shows in Southern VT. The plus is there is usuall a show just across the river in White River jct at the same time.
It's OK. I wouldn't bother if you are just window shopping. It is in a mid sized hotel banquet room. I don't recall seeing anything special in years past, I lived local and didn't think it really worth the price of admission. If you are gung ho gun nuts and going shopping go for it. The pizza place up the road next to ll bean is pretty good.
