KBIS Draws 43,000+ for 2025
LAS VEGAS – The latest edition of the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) set another record last week, bringing more than 43,000 attendees to the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The largest kitchen and bath trade show in North America brought together building, fabrication and design professionals on Feb.25-27 to see close to 700 exhibitors in a half-million square-feet of exhibit space.
The co-location of KBIS and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)’s International Builders’ Show (IBS) as Design & Construction Week (DCW), produced by Emerald Exhibitions, brought the total attendance at the Las Vegas Convention Center to more than 124,000.
“The brands this year did not disappoint—from the biggest names in the industry to emerging innovators and international leaders making their debut in North America,” said Brian Pagel, Executive Vice President at Emerald. “I’ve been in this industry for more than 15 years and always leave KBIS inspired and having discovered something new.”
“KBIS is thriving, and I’m optimistic about 2025 for our membership and the larger home and design industry,” said Bill Darcy, global president & CEO of the National Kitchen and Bath Association, the owner of KBIS.
KBIS featured more than more than 150 first-time exhibitors, as well as almost 270 international vendors on the trade-show floor.
“The audience has been amazing – tons of energy,” said Tyler Thompson, Caesarstone director of brand marketing. “They’re interested – leaning in, asking questions, and it’s amazing. You don’t always see that on a show floor. Being able to sit, ask questions, be involved with the conversation, and take a moment out of their day at the show. We couldn’t be more happy with the audience and their reaction to the booth this year.”
Next year, KBIS will be held Feb. 17-19 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla. KBIS will once again co-locate with the International Builders’ Show for Design and Construction Week.
With nearly 50,000 members in all segments of the kitchen and bath industry, NKBA | KBIS has informed, educated and supported the industry since the association was founded in 1963.
