Excitement about The PPAI Expo 2022, returning in-person to Las Vegas on January 10-13, continues to gain momentum among both attendees and exhibitors. Now only 32 days away, it will be PPAI’s first in-person show since January 2020, and organizers are pulling out all the stops to ensure the industry’s top trade show exceeds all expectations and starts the New Year off right. With more than 900 exhibiting companies in 2,200 booths encompassing nearly one-million gross square feet of show floor space at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center and showcasing more than 250,000 products, organizers promise an industry homecoming that everyone will want to be a part of.

“PPAI has been planning for the industry’s largest event for over two years,” says Alan Peterson, PPAI vice president, business development. “Along with a new party venue, revised floor plan and our new PPAI Expo Conference, we’ve also taken great care to ensure business and education get accomplished in a safe and productive environment. Like you, PPAI believes The PPAI Expo offers the most unique gathering with the primary goal to build your business, rekindle friendships and meet new promotional products professionals. In 2021, we missed providing you these opportunities that can only arise from participating in The PPAI Expo, so we are bringing the 2022 show back in a really big way.” 

Throughout its long history, the success of The PPAI Expo has been the key indicator of the promotional products industry’s power, importance and uniqueness, and the upcoming show has all the markings of a strong year ahead.

“As the industry leader in portable displays and signage, no one is happier to see the return of in-person events than the team at Showdown Displays,” says Kevin Walsh, CAS, president of supplier Showdown Displays and incoming PPAI chair-elect. “The promotional industry is social by nature and these past 22 months have interrupted our ability to build and fortify relationships through in-person events. The PPAI Expo 2022 offers a milestone opportunity for us all to reconnect, engage and collaborate together, in person.”
