Food, Hospitality & Gaming Conventions in Las Vegas

Hospitality shows bring the people who run the city's own industries to town from everywhere else. Bar and restaurant owners and pizzeria operators shop for equipment and ideas; hotel designers and owners meet at HD Expo; casino operators and suppliers fill G2E; tribal gaming leaders attend the Indian Gaming Tradeshow; and meeting planners and destinations do business at IMEX America. Many attendees are operators who know Las Vegas well.

We track 6 hospitality shows in Las Vegas with 5,000 or more attendees; 6 have confirmed dates between Mar 22, 2027 and Sep 28, 2027. The largest on the calendar is G2E 2027 (Global Gaming Expo), with a published figure of about 25,000 (organizer figure, year not stated, per its source), followed by IMEX America 2027 (~18K) and Bar & Restaurant Expo 2027 (~10K).
