As Las Vegas’ hotels, casinos and restaurants continue to reopen their doors and resume business, the convention and trade show market is waking up as well.
Cavlo – a trade show focused on professional audio/video equipment used in entertainment and communication applications – will debut at the Ahern Hotel on Sept. 14 and 15.
“Six of the 10 AV-focused trade shows that were scheduled to be in Las Vegas in 2020 canceled their 2020 event,” said Mike Brown-Cestero, managing director of the cavlo trade show, in the announcement.
Of course, these shows were canceled or postponed because of the coronavirus outbreak across the U.S. and around the world.
“Cavlo will get those exhibitors and attendees back face-to-face for the first time in Vegas in 2020. We’ll have the full experience: exhibit spaces, discussion panels, demo rooms and training sessions” he said.
AVIXA completed its first virtual trade show, InfoComm 2020 Connected, last week after canceling the in-person event that had been scheduled for mid-June in Las Vegas. The Digital Signage Expo is scheduled for Sept. 15-18 in Las Vegas after being postponed from its original late March date.
Las Vegas casinos and resort hotels have been reopening in the last several weeks and are slowly increasing their capacities.
What to Expect at Cavlo
Proper safety protocols will be observed at cavlo, according to the show announcement. If they are still recommended at the time, masks will be mandatory, and the cavlo organizers have already secured thermal cameras and tablets for temperature checks.
“We’re committed to a safe, professional working environment that will help instill confidence in conventioneers and bring them back to Vegas again,” said Brown-Cestero in the announcement.
Cavlo is a “trade-only, two-day event focused on commercial entertainment and communication technologies that will put manufacturers, specifiers, integrators and end users together under one roof in Las Vegas for the first time in 2020,” the announcement says.
