Earlier this week it was announced that the International Builder's Show and the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show would co-locate starting in 2014; today Hanley Wood Exhibitions announced that the Surfaces/StonExpo shows would share dates with the Builders' Show and KBIS beginning in 2015.
The week is being branded as "Design/Construction Week." In 2015 the Surfaces/StonExpo shows will take place at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center Jan. 21-23, while the Builders' Show and KBIS will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center Jan. 20-22.
"The co-dating with IBS and KBIS in 2015 is a major advancement for Surfaces/StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas. This strategic agreement adds value for both the buyers and exhibitors at both venues," said Dana Teague, group director, Surfaces/StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas, in a release. "We are very excited about this new partnership and look forward to seeing our attendees and exhibitors reap the benefits that will ensue."
The shows will remain separate events, but attendees will be able to use an all-access pass for Design/Construction Week to attend all four events.
