TISE East Online Registration Opens
DALLAS – Attendee online registration is now officially open for The International Surface Event (TISE) East, set for Orlando, Fla., on Nov. 2-5.
Following last year’s launch in Miami, TISE East is gearing up to bring the floor-covering, stone and tile industry a unique event experience through new show- floor features, and a specialty peer-to-peer conference.
This year’s event will include an industry expo on Nov, 3-5 and education from Nov. 2-5 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.
Online registration is available at www.TISEeast.com/Register, where all event information is accessible 24/7.
“We are excited at the new lineup of opportunities being presented to the industry at the upcoming Orlando TISE East in November,” said Show Director Amie Gilmore. “These unique new opportunities, along with the event’s key association partnerships and the incredible Orlando destination, are setting up TISE East as a stellar event for the industry.”
NEW SHOW FEATURES
The Porch, Open Air Design Concept will be the hub of activity on the show floor, offering happy hours, cocktail bar, lounges, the central meeting location for tours and much more. The Porch offers solutions to the high-demand design, architectural and retail needs for the ever popular Open Air Design Concept. This beautifully designed show feature will showcase exhibitor floor covering, stone and tile products, artfully paired with designer accessories, perfect for the outdoor living space.
The Peer 180° Conference is an educational experience like no other. Unlike traditional conferences with pre-determined topics, Peer 180° encourages attendees to share their problems and their experiences, and make real connections with professionals who face the same challenges. This conference provides a smaller, more-intimate and supported environment that is tailored by and for the individual attendee.
TISE in Paradise Welcome Party at Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville! Right in the middle of Universal Orlando CityWalk, attendees will enjoy live music, food and drinks in an exotic island destination atmosphere. Build relationships and grow your business network and have an incredible time doing it. After the party, stay and play on at Universal Orlando with a CityWalk Party Pass, TISE East has negotiated one low price for you to attend all the hot event spots throughout the event dates.
