Informa Exhibitions U.S. reported that its recently completed space draw for World of Concrete 2019 secured just over 970 exhibitors booking more than 676,000 net square feet of exhibit space.

With nine months remaining until WOC 2019, organizers are anticipating significant growth over World of Concrete 2018 — which was the largest event in nine years, with 58,000 registered professionals featuring 1,564 suppliers exhibiting across more than 746,000 net square feet of space.

“We are anticipating another exciting event for 2019,” said Jackie James, group director of World of Concrete. “This space draw has surpassed expectations in square footage, and we are confident the 2019 event will be a strong event for both exhibitors and attendees. We look forward to serving the concrete and masonry industries with this annual international platform to network, source and receive valuable education to start the year off strong.”

“There are some very positive changes to the show floor for 2019. We have moved the masonry area to Central Hall, and technology to the North Hall, to accommodate both of these growing sectors of our industry. We look forward to filling what is left in available booth space throughout the summer and fall, culminating in another action-packed event for our attendees,” said Kevin Archibald, show manager.

World of Concrete 2019, taking place Jan. 22 to 25; seminars 21 to 25, at the Las Vegas Convention Center, will feature a week of new products, the latest equipment, cutting-edge technologies, spectator events and competitions, and more than 150 educational sessions including luncheons, interactive workshops, hands-on training, and industry and hands-on training.
