Renew Your Booth for Next Year
Every exhibitor key contact has been sent a link to the renewal application. We encourage you to renew your booth before the show. However, should you decide to renew on site feel free to stop by the Sales Office at your convenience. No appointment is necessary. The Sales Office at The Venetian Expo is in Room 203, just off the lobby on the first level. The Sales Office at Caesars Forum is in a new location, across from Summit Ballroom 223. — Chris Tatulli, NSSF
Supplier Showcase Returns — Bigger Than Ever
The Supplier Showcase is back and larger than ever! Taking place Monday (8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m.) and Tuesday (8:30 a.m.–4 p.m.) on the 5th Floor of The Venetian Expo, this must-see area features 600+ material and service suppliers ready to support sourcing, engineering and product development needs. Plan ahead and be sure the right members of your team are scheduled to attend. — Melissa Schilling, NSSF
New Product Center Placement Still Available
To help your new product stand out even more, consider adding it to the New Product Center — spaces are still available. This area of the show has some of the highest traffic figures throughout SHOT Week, with most attendees walking through it at least once. Select members of the media attend a breakfast hosted in the New Product Center, as well, providing additional opportunities for coverage. Contact a member of the NSSF sales team to secure your spot. — Chris Tatulli, NSSF
Kick-Off Each Evening with Free Networking, Entertainment & Beer
Join fellow exhibitors and attendees for free networking events on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, immediately following show close at 5:30 p.m. on the Caesars Forum Great Outdoors Plaza. Enjoy complimentary beer, entertainment and a relaxed atmosphere — plus don’t miss the special drone show Tuesday night as SHOT Show celebrates freedom and America’s 250th birthday. — Melissa Schilling, NSSF
