“FireShowsWest is one of the longest running conference and expos on the West coast specializing in providing innovative training for all members of the fire service. We are grateful to have the continued support of our attendees, instructors, and exhibitors. 

FireShowsWest has always been passionate about offering firefighters and first responders an excellent training opportunity that blends classroom and hands-on sessions together by inviting an outstanding cadre of highly qualified instructors who passionately share their knowledge.

Though our focus is always about making the most cutting-edge training attainable for our nation’s firefighters, we also believe how building bonds with our comrades outside of the classroom can translate to cohesive strength on the fireground.  Therefore, we’re introducing an expansion to the Events & Exhibits Hall. FireShowsWest 2025 will see extended Exhibit Hours, an expansion to the Lounge Area, a myriad of added social events. Attendees have direct contact with suppliers providing cutting edge tools, equipment and services with knowledgeable representatives to answer any questions.”

March Mayhem Fire Conference
March 14-16, 2025
Boise & Across the Treasure Valley, Idaho

What is March Mayhem?
It is the combination of passion and the drive to improve the fire service for the better by providing top notch training via lectures, workshops and hands on training. Started in 2021, this conference has rapidly grown to what it is today because of the dedication of all the firefighters in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. The Treasure Valley region is one of the fastest growing regions in the nation. Growth comes with growing pains such as hiring of firefighters, building new stations, population growth, and budget constraints. We want to provide training close enough to benefit the Pacific Northwest in the beautiful Treasure Valley.
