Registration and hotel reservations are still available for the upcoming ABC Kids Expo in Las Vegas, the leading show for the juvenile furniture and products industry.
The show will be held Sept. 13 to 16 in the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Show organizers have announced that hotel prices are particularly attractive this time. “We are pleased to announce that nearly all of our lodging partners have reduced their room rates at least once, some as many as three times, for show attendees.” Hotel rooms are available on a first come, first serve basis.
The Las Vegas Hilton is the host hotel and rooms are still available there.
The ABC Show is in its seventh year and was recently named one of the 50 fastest growing trade shows in the country. It features more than 800 exhibitors and occupies some one million square feet of space. On Monday, Sept. 14, the show features a free reception for all attendees.
The show has traditionally been held in Las Vegas since its inception but in May, show sponsors said they will move the event in 2011 to Louisville, Ky., and have booked the Kentucky Exposition Center through 2015 for the show. It will continue to be held in September.
“Louisville was the natural choice to be the next home to the ABC Kids Expo,” said Larry Schur, president & show director. “The Kentucky Exposition Center offers exactly what we need to provide a successful show. That, along with the central location of the city and its over-the-top hospitality has made it the place to call our new home.”
