How full will Vegas be during IMEX America 2027?

Packed: Strip rates typically spike. Book rooms 4-6 months out and lock private rooms early.

IMEX America 2027 falls mostly in the week of Sep 27, 2027, which we rate Packed: about 73,014 trade-show attendees in town (pro-rated), counting IMEX America 2027 and 2 other tracked shows that overlap its dates.

Overlapping shows

Each Monday-Sunday week gets one score: the pro-rated attendance of every tracked trade show in town that week. The score sets the week label. A show carries the label of the week that holds most of its days (ties go to the busier week), and on a week page every show card carries that week’s label, so a tile and its week never disagree. Method.

When to book entertainment for IMEX America 2027

Book entertainment: Plenty of time

Based on typical lead times for headline and booth entertainment (status as of Oct 18). In Packed or Sold-out weeks, book at the early end; private rooms and hotel blocks go fast too.
