You’ve told us what matters most: stronger buyer engagement, an efficient show experience, and better opportunities to do business. We’ve been listening.

For HD Expo 2027, we’re making focused changes designed to deliver more value for exhibitors while staying true to what has made us the industry’s longest-running hospitality design event.

A Two-Day Expo Hall
The full event will now run May 3 to 5, 2027, at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, with a bolstered pre-conference education day on May 3, and expo hall opening two days only May 4 and 5. Concentrating the floor into two days means sharper energy, purposeful traffic, and more efficient use of your team’s time and resources.May 3 will feature an expanded HD University along with education, industry conversations, and networking that position your brand before the expo hall opens.

Targeted Reach to West Coast Buyers
We’re adding new programming and incentives to draw more decision-makers from the West Coast, Las Vegas, Western Canada, and LATAM, with a focused effort on ownership groups and procurement leaders who engage directly with your products. With attendees from all 50 states and 34 countries, we are doing more to bring these elusive regional buyers and power players into your booth at scale.

Expanded VIP Meetings Access
We are expanding on our successful Hosted Buyer program with a facilitated meetings opportunity that will connect exhibitors with qualified buyers through structured, one-to-one conversations, designed to make your time on-site count.These changes come directly from attendee and exhibitor feedback, your priorities, and your expectations for what this show should deliver. We’re not reinventing HD Expo. We’re refining it to create more value and make it work even better for you.
