The Expo at World Market Center, Las Vegas officially opens for business on Aug. 30 as it receives temporary certificate of occupancy. The World Market Center houses the temporary gift and home exhibits for IMC’s Summer 2020.
The Expo in Las Vegas Market will be held with 315,000 Sq. foot tradeshow facility in downtown.
“The Expo is a public-private partnership that will provide downtown Las Vegas with a state-of-the-art venue for smaller-scale meetings, conferences and exhibitions,” said Bob Maricich, IMC CEO. “We are delighted that construction stayed on time and on budget during recent business disruptions and believe this facility is an important first step for the tradeshow industry as Las Vegas recovery begins.”
The Expo will debut during the summer Las Vegas Market, housing the market’s temporary exhibitors in six destinations: Design, Gift, Handmade, Home, Immediate Delivery and Luxe. The Expo lobby, which is contiguous with Building C, will include attendee and exhibitor registration, positioning it as the gateway to the marketplace’s permanent and temporary resources. For its premiere, the Expo will feature a new tradeshow layout designed to enable social distancing and traffic control due to COVID-19.
