Registration is now open for Questex’s International Beauty Show (IBS) Las Vegas and International Esthetics, Cosmetics & Spa Conference (IECSC) Las Vegas. Coming off the New York co-located events that drew over 30,000 attendees, momentum is high for the Las Vegas shows which will take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center June 24-26, 2023, also targeting beauty, spa and wellness professionals.
The co-located shows are launching an exciting new show pattern. A day focused solely on education will be offered on Saturday, June 24. Additional education opportunities and both the IBS and IECSC exhibit floors will be open on Sunday, June 25 from 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m., and Monday, June 26 from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., longer than traditional hours, ensuring more time for attendees and exhibitors to connect on the show floor.
“This is an excellent opportunity for attendees and exhibitors alike to make the most of their beauty and spa show experience,” said Elizabeth Fantetti, event & partnership director, Questex Beauty & Spa Group. “By heavying up the education opportunities on Saturday, we’ve given attendees the ability to experience the exhibit floor as much as they want on Sunday and Monday, while still having plenty of rich education to choose from either day. It’s a surefire win for everyone attending the event.”
Capitalizing on the success of new experiences at the New York events, the 2023 Las Vegas shows will feature multiple areas that celebrate and support attendees, while encouraging them to say YES to themselves, which ties into the ‘Say Yes to You’ campaign and theme that will run throughout the show.
“Our ‘Say Yes to You’ campaign, allows us to turn the focus on our attendees. Beauty and spa professionals are so used to saying yes to everyone else, especially their clients, and now we get the opportunity to have them feel special, learn from top educators in the business and become their best selves,” added Fantetti.
