BIGGEST SHOW YET 2023 SET FOR

Attended by more than 125,000 visitors and held every three years at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), the CONEXPO-CON/AGG show is one of the largest trade shows in North America, and is by far the largest for the construction industry. And this year’s show is shaping up to be the biggest yet.

“The addition of the new West Hall and Diamond Lot at the Las Vegas Convention Center gave us, and our exhibitors, a number of new opportunities to show how we are taking the construction industry to the next level,” said show director Dana Wuesthoff. “Now at 2.8 million square feet of exhibits, there’s more for construction pros to see than ever before.”

The show, which will be almost five per cent bigger than its record-setting 2020 edition, will feature 1,800 exhibitors and more than 175 education sessions during its run from March 14 to 18.

Although it will be the largest CONEXPO ever, recent additions to the LVCC will make it easier than ever to get around the grounds. Opened to convention center traffic in 2021, and located beneath the entire LVCC campus, is the Convention Center Loop, an underground transportation system designed by Elon Musk’s The Boring Company. The system of Tesla vehicles transports convention attendees throughout the campus in under two minutes, free of charge.

“We are excited to welcome CONEXPO-CON/AGG back to Las Vegas for another record-setting event,” said Brian Yost, chief operating officer of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA), which owns and operates the LVCC.
