Las Vegas Convention Vendors And Trade Shows

By Miranda Sweeney


A number of conferences, seminars and workshops take place in the city of Las Vegas. When one thinks of Las Vegas Convention Vendors, one does not often think of the vendors having a focused event. Depending on the length, style and type of conference, vending booths are often quite varied when it comes products and services.

Las Vegas is known almost as well for its convention and visitor services as it is for its entertainment and gambling. One reason is because of the amazing National Bulk Vendors Association. An organization that provides support to companies, corporations and individuals wishing to set up a vending booth, or other marketing site at events. Another is for the largely publicized events which occur in the city on an annual basis.

While a science fiction vendor might have miniatures of science fiction characters and culture, a magic vending booth is most likely going to sell magic costumes, masks, tricks and accessories. Whereas, an electronics showcase often focuses on the best and newest technological gadgets on the market, or going on the market in the near future.

One of the most important things about a booth is the individual or individuals monitoring the booth and answering questions. For this reason, it is important to staff the booth with individuals whom are knowledgeable in the products or services being offered at the time. When there are two individuals staffing the booth at all times, it is easier to take breaks and lunch hours without having to leave the booth.

Another is to use bright colors that draw people into the booth. Having product or services displayed on a table with decorations is also a good idea. When and where possible leaving candy or other items like free erasers, pens, pencils, business card magnets with the company name, address and phone number can often be beneficial.

Whether an international, national, regional or local show, it is often good to have a booth. Booths are often used as a way to distribute information as much as product. While there may be a large flow of people through any one show, most pick up business cards in hope of making contact at a later date. When planning a give away, it is good to list any ingredients in food or drink and assure there is enough stock for the event.

Some events are infamous for the parties surrounding the main events of the conference. These include LGBT oriented conferences, science fiction conventions and others. It is important that when attending these parties or other events that what "happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." Confidentiality while not a given fact, is often a good rule of thumb when it comes to talking about private events. A rule that is especially true in LGBT circles in which some individuals may not even be out to parents much less colleagues, friends and co-workers.

Las Vegas provides a great backdrop for a circus, conference, festival, seminar, trade show or other event. Attendees have a variety of different types of entertainment at every corner. Multiple casinos, amusement parks, circus shows, magic shows, musical events and tourist attractions assure this is the case.
