Next month, the largest licensing trade show in the world, Licensing Expo, will be held in person for the first time in two years. Taking place from May 24-26, the event will kick off with its annual Opening Night Party, this time available for free to all attendees.
In association with ATLUS, the party will take place the first night of Licensing Expo, May 24 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Promising to be the must-attend, after-hours networking event for the industry, Licensing Expo hopes to bring influential brand owners, retailers, and licensees together over mutual excitement and passion for the industry.
“For the first time, the Opening Night Party is free-of-charge for all Licensing Expo registrants to encourage everyone to reconnect in person after being apart for three long years,” says Anna Knight, SVP of Licensing at Informa Markets. “It’s a chance to celebrate our industry’s resilience, see familiar faces, and unwind after a busy first day back at the live event. Licensing Expo is back – we couldn’t be more excited and look forward to an evening of fun and camaraderie.”
The Opening Night Party will be held at the Daylight Beach Club in Mandalay Bay. There will be a set amount of food and drink provided at the event, but bar items will be available for purchase. Capacity is limited and entrance is granted on a first-come, first-served basis to any individual registered for the trade show. Registration for the event is free and can be accessed at licensingexpo.com.
