The good folks at Nikon are about to hit the road as part of the Nikon Tour 2025, where a crack team of Nikon experts will be bringing the Big N to the people.

A Toyota Land Cruiser, dressed in Nikon yellow, will tour the United States jam-packed with Nikon Z5 II and Nikon Z50 II cameras. The Nikon Tour will visit various US cities including Chicago, San Diego, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Houston – but that’s not all.

According to Nikon, “Each stop will offer a different and distinct experience brimming with local flavor and personality.” Both Nikon Creators and Ambassadors, and local artists and influencers will link up with the roving Nikon team to deliver workshops and photo walks, covering various genres.

If you’re unable to hook up with the touring Nikon SUV, a Nikon Mobile Kiosk will be popping up in a series of locations across 2025 and 2026, also providing the opportunity to embark on activities and get hands-on with the latest Nikon cameras.
