It’s that time of year! Registration for the 2017 Kitchen & Bath Industry Show is now OPEN! NKBA members can register for FREE this month only at www.KBIS.com.

KBIS 2017 is again teaming up with the International Builders’ Show (IBS) for the fifth annual Design & Construction Week. While the show was held in Las Vegas for the past two years, the 2017 and 2018 show will be held in sunny Orlando! The Orange County Convention Center will house the largest annual event geared toward design and construction industry professionals, with over 2,100 exhibitors combined.

Returning this year will be the highly-anticipated Voices from the Industry conference; Champagne & Cupcakes, the annual, unofficial kick-off to KBIS; the prestigious NKBA 30 Under 30 Program; KBIS DESIGN BITES; the Hard Hat Media Tour; the highly successful portfolio reviews and the coveted BEST of KBIS Awards presented by Meredith Publications.

New for 2017 will be The Magic of Design opening party featuring the 2017 NKBA Design Competition awards held at Epcot’s World Showcase, as well as The Deck, a casual outdoor space giving attendees a chance to escape the show floor while being exposed to the latest in outdoor design products.

There will also be a brand new Smart Home Pavilion offered through a new partnership between NKBA and the Custom Electronics Design and Installation Association (CEDIA).

“NKBA is thrilled that the collaboration with CEDIA has led to the creation of this new home technology destination at Design and Construction Week,” said Bill Darcy, NKBA CEO. “This is ultimately a huge win for consumers, as we lead the way in connecting the industry to a better kitchen, bath and connected home.”
