Food Festival

After a day of conference sessions and expo demonstrations, you’ll be hungry. We’ve got the cure for that at the Nightclub & Bar Show Food Festival. This brand-new feature brings together some of the most innovative local restaurants in a fun, festival atmosphere. Walk around, discover Las Vegas-owned restaurants and network with attendees, speakers and exhibitors. More details to come, but make sure you stick around for Tuesday evening because you don’t want to miss this delicious new addition to the show.

Business Bar

Another new addition to the show this year is our Employment Zone. While much of this area is dedicated to connecting job seekers with potential employers, we also have an exciting addition for venue owners and operators: our Business Bar. Here, you can snag a complementary 15-minute consultation with industry experts ranging from real estate attorneys to brand marketers, finance experts to PR pros. Do you need advice on renegotiating your lease, or want some guidance on your upcoming re-brand? The Business Bar can help! It’s first come, first served and totally free!

Celebrities

It wouldn’t be the Nightclub & Bar Show without a few celebrity appearances. Actress, model, television host, author and entrepreneur Jenny McCarthy is opening up the expo floor at our ribbon cutting ceremony. You can also find her representing Blondies, her popular line of ready-to-drink cocktails, during the expo as well. These gluten-free cocktails are made with award-winning vodka and real fruit juices, with no artificial flavors, dyes or sweeteners. In addition, the “Red Rocker” Sammy Hagar returns to Nightclub & Bar Show this year! One of the most iconic rock stars of all time, Hagar is also an industry entrepreneur with award winning restaurants and spirits under his belt. The founder of Cabo Wabo Tequila, Sammy’s Beach Bar Rum and Santo Mezquila (the world’s first tequila-mezcal hybrid) will be sitting down for an exclusive one-on-one interview on the NxT Stage to discuss his journey from rock ‘n roll star to godfather of celebrity spirits and philanthropist. Then, you can find him at his booth on the show floor! Stay tuned for more celebrities that are joining us at this year’s Nightclub & Bar Show.
