As Expected, The NAB Show Cancels Early April Trade Show

By: Justin Lang on March 23, 2020

It was inevitable, The National Association of Broadcasters announced Friday that they are cancelling and NOT rescheduling the 2020 Las Veges trade show. Originally, back on March 11, the show was moved to April 18-22. What does this mean, let’s look at the rough numbers the Review Journal put together.

The show typically draws in 90,000 attendee and over 1,600 exhibitors over the four day event.That is a loss in hotel rooms, restaurants, entertainment, gig work just to name a couple.  To put it in perspective, last years show estimated to have an economic impact of $153 million on Vegas.This is just one show, in one city. Stay #VegasStrong everyone.  It will get better and the work will return.
