Have you ever seen the show “How It’s Made”? Have you found yourself wondering what it would be like to tour a manufacturing facility in person?

The public is invited to join us in touring manufacturers across the region that have opened their doors to showcase their facilities, products, machines, and the variety of in-demand and high paying employment opportunities.

This year’s tours will be taking place on Thursday, October 3 from 9am-3pm and Saturday, October 5 from 9am-1pm.

Generally depending on capacity, manufacturers will host tours hourly, every 30 minutes, or with guided small group tours that leave on a rolling basis.

All events are open to the public unless noted otherwise. Participants in the tour can show up at companies at any time during the tour timeframe; however, it is recommended to check tour schedules in the magazine to determine the best arrival time. Specific details regarding tour schedules are included in the Tour of Manufacturing Magazine.
