The National Association of Home Builders opened online registration for the 2021 NAHB International Builders' Show.
IBS will move back to the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, Feb. 9-11, where it will again co-locate with the National Kitchen & Bath Association's Kitchen & Bath Industry Show for the 8th annual Design & Construction Week. The two shows are expected to host more than 1,500 exhibiting brands spanning over 700,000 net square feet of exhibit space.
"The health and safety of our community remains the top priority as NAHB prepares for the in-person 2021 International Builders' Show," says Chuck Fowke, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders. "While this year's show will no doubt look a bit different, we are excited to bring our attendees the same high-level experience they have come to expect, with leading edge education sessions, numerous networking opportunities, and an exhibit hall full of innovative products all in one place."
Attendees with an education + expo pass registration will have access to more than 90 education sessions on a wide range of industry topics.
IBS also offers education opportunities on the show floor. The High Performance Building Zone will feature construction demonstrations on the latest techniques for improving efficiency in all areas of the home, the IBS Jobsite Safety Zone will showcase workplace safety solutions, and attendees can see the latest innovations in home technology at the Home Technology Solutions Pavilion.
During September, IBS registrants can take advantage of several registration discounts. NAHB members can receive a free expo pass or a $100 discount off an education + expo pass registration if they register this month. For a full list of offerings, visit: www.BuildersShow.com/fees.
As the trade show industry continues to evolve in response to the rapid changes of the coronavirus pandemic, NAHB is working closely with Orlando authorities to create a safe environment for all attendees. The situation is being monitored daily and in consultation with health experts. The 2021 Builders' Show will apply guidelines and standards set-forth by the CDC and federal, state and local government agencies. NAHB will work to implement important health and safety protocols and ensure industry best practices in and around IBS are followed.
