The Product Demonstration Showcase exhibit hall is intentionally smaller than the biennial Trade Show in Las Vegas, but sees the same number of attendees, making the Product Demonstration Showcase a more intimate event and, ultimately, giving you more exposure to the Beer Distributors in attendance.
Exhibiting is an exclusive opportunity for NBWA Members. If you are not currently a Member, there is an option to add Membership while reserving your exhibit space.
