The new year is here, and along with the endless possibilities and opportunities that are coming our way in 2025, we’re especially thrilled about this year’s CD/NLA Show in Vegas. We’re anticipating our biggest and most exciting show ever at the Paris Hotel & Casino from February 23-26, with attendees, exhibitors, and sponsors heavily energized by this year’s show. Registrations are coming in fast and furious, while our show floor space was virtually sold out before the turn of the calendar page. But, if you haven’t registered for what looks to be the très magnifique event of the year, now is the time because our Early Bird pricing ends on Friday, January 10. This is the final week to save beaucoup bucks off our registration fee. When you sign up, your package includes four days of education, networking events, two open bar parties with appetizers, three breakfasts, two lunches, and unlimited opportunities to strengthen your business. Register now for only $575… but wait! NLA members save an additional whopping $100. But once the Early Bird is gone, the price WILL go up. And while you’re at it, why not secure your accommodations at the Paris? Book your room today as part of our exclusive room block that has an average price of $165/night. Space is limited, so don’t miss out. You’re coming anyway, so why not save a little dough?
As Vegas is a favorite destination for our industry worldwide, you can anticipate a large representation of operators from overseas. In fact, the CD/NLA Show attracts business owners from every continent short of Antarctica. From Rio to Rome and Stockholm to Sydney we have guests coming from all over the world. With that in mind, we’re proud to bring back the popular International Meet & Greet networking event to the show on Monday, February 24 at 5:30 p.m., courtesy of sponsors Cardel Group, Global Alliance Worldwide Chauffeured Services, and Van Delden Limousine. Like our Affiliate Central, our International Meet & Greet remains one of the best-attended events in our lineup. The casual yet semi-structured setting, with light fare provided, is the perfect way to mingle with like-minded operators from across the pond—whatever pond that may be. We also have educational content planned for Tuesday morning specifically geared toward our international attendees. So, join us at 9:15 a.m. for Navigating the Ever-Changing Landscape of Shared Global Challenges, where a globe-spanning panel will address the trials and tribulations operators face outside of the US.
“This is the best networking experience. It’s the fourth year that we’ve come—and we will continue coming,” says Rodrigo Medina Marsan of Ibiza VIP Bus.
“An exceptional event with great presentations with quality content—and an incredible group of people attending. A lot of good business will be done as a result of these relationships,” says Vince Robinson of RCS of London.
