Las Vegas Food & Beverage Industry Week Returns to Las Vegas in 2025

The fourth annual edition of the Las Vegas Food & Beverage Industry Week (LVFBIW), in partnership with Emerald and Questex, will make its return to the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) from March 24-26, 2025. The event, made up of three elite and premier shows including Bar & Restaurant Expo, International Pizza Expo, and World Tea Expo, is dedicated to fostering industry connections and reinvigorating commercial opportunities, resources, and growth.

In 2024, the highly successful and well-attended event delivered a highly valuable experience for thousands of the world’s key food and beverage buyers and suppliers. In addition to the exciting programming and events offered by each individual show, LVFBIW created a much needed and vital resource for small businesses within the food and beverage industry. With over 60% of attendees coming from small, single-unit businesses, the shows provided a platform for these businesses to connect with industry players and learn about the latest trends.

The event underscores Las Vegas’ appeal as a premiere culinary destination. Las Vegas has been named the number-one trade show destination in North America for over 25 consecutive years, according to the Trade Show News Network (TSNN), the world's leading resource for the trade show, exhibition and event industry.

In its 41st year and being held March 25-27, 2025, International Pizza Expo is organized by Emerald and is the world’s largest pizza show. Welcoming thousands of pizzeria professionals from around the world, the show attracts top equipment and ingredient suppliers and features educational sessions taught by industry leaders. Pizza Expo also features national pizza competitions in categories ranging from box folding to dough tossing.

At Questex’s Bar & Restaurant Expo, attendees will learn more about the latest trends and troubleshooting challenges in the bar and restaurant industry from single-unit to national chain operators and the industry’s largest hospitality groups. The event will feature the recent innovations in the business, providing exciting insights into the future of the industry.

Exploring the future of the tea industry, the World Tea Expo will provide a fully immersive experience with live demos, new product sampling and interactive conference sessions where attendees can meet suppliers from around the world and celebrate their passion for innovative tea.

“Questex is proud to be a part of the Las Vegas Food & Beverage Industry Week for another year,” said Tim McLucas, vice president of Bar & Restaurant Group. “The ongoing partnership with the LVCC and Emerald allows us to create a truly exceptional experience for our industry, and we’re looking forward to another successful collaboration.”

The event is the only one of its kind dedicated to the food and beverage industry in the United States. The combined strengths of these four premier events brought forth the first, and one of the most significant, in-person food and beverage experiences since the pandemic's beginning.
