Registration Open for TISE 2021
IRVING, Texas – Online registration is now open for The International Surface Event (TISE), the first North American hard-surface trade event of the year on June 16-18 in Las Vegas.
The event, which includes SURFACES, StonExpo/Marmomac and TileExpo, will take place at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center and will be among the first large shows to return to the city.
Registration for the event is available here. Packages include a standard exhibit-hall entry for $55-$65, and an extended pass to include admission to TISE 2022 for $90-$110.
TISE will be the first major large-scale event to return to Mandalay Bay, with approval from Nevada’s Department of Business and Industry to move forward with the event.
Nevada’s new directive requires venues to follow health and safety requirements and protocols, and adhere to the prevention principles that have remained consistent: maintain safe physical distancing, wear face coverings, and practice good hygiene.
MGM Resorts, Mandalay Bay’s owner, developed the Convene with Confidence program built around its Seven-Point Safety Plan, outlining detailed protocols throughout every aspect of the convention and meeting process.
Efforts range from smart planning of the event itself to contactless check-in and increased cleaning schedules of common areas, with special attention paid to high-contact areas such as doorknobs and food contact surfaces.
Event producer/owner Informa Markets will also adhere to its AllSecure Standard to ensure a safe event. (To learn more, visit www.informa.com/allsecure).
“As we return to the in-person experiences our customers crave, safety and success have to be dual engines and core drivers, so that our communities can re-connect in meaningful and secure ways,” said Kevin Thornton, VP, Operations at Informa Markets.”We have a medically-vetted and industry-wide set of health and safety measures known as the AllSecure Guidelines to guide us as we return those experiences to Las Vegas, ensuring the same rigorous approach to health and safety at all our events.”
“Welcoming TISE back to Mandalay Bay is a significant milestone for our resort and for all of us as an industry, as we see larger shows begin to return to in-person programming,” said Ernest Stovall, vice president of sales for Mandalay Bay. “We are confident that with our health and safety protocols in place, attendees will have a positive and productive Las Vegas experience and still enjoy the energy and excitement of the city they’ve come to know and love.”
New inside TISE registration for 2021, the TISE exhibits pass offers complete access to the full education program occurring on the TISE Live Main Stage on the exhibit hall floor. Also available is the 2021 + 2022 Frequent Buyers Pass which automatically registers attendees for both events and provides the benefit of additional event perks.
The Exhibits Package is $55 for members of the World Floor Covering Association, Natural Stone Institute or National Tile Contractor Association, and $65 for non-members. The Frequent Buyers Pass is $90 for association members, and $110 for non-members.
