Impressions Expo (formerly the Imprinted Sportswear Shows) and ISA International Sign Expo, Alexandria, Va., will co-locate next spring, with a combined tradeshow space topping 350,000 square feet.
ISA Sign Expo is the on-premise sign and visual communications industry’s largest expo, while Impressions Expo is the premier tradeshow for the imprinted and decorated apparel industry.
The co-location was announced during ISA International Sign Expo 2019 held on April 24-26 in Las Vegas.
“Bringing these events to one location allows attendees the opportunity to explore exciting ways to expand their businesses,” says Lori Anderson, president and chief executive officer of the International Sign Association. “Both are thriving industries that offer creative ways to grow and serve clients, especially for printers who already have some of the necessary equipment.”
Both Impressions Expo and ISA International Sign Expo bring in thousands of attendees across the industry and offer top-notch education through seminars and hands-on demonstrations at each event.
“This co-location is an excellent opportunity to bring two unique but closely related communities together”, says Joshua Carruth, show director of Impressions Expo. “Not only will both attendee bases have the potential to benefit from discovering and adding new, profitable, services to offer their customers but also, having the chance to network and learn from the other’s experiences is something of tremendous value in itself.”
ISA International Sign Expo 2020 and Impressions Expo will be held April 2-4, in Orlando, Fla., at the Orange County Convention Center. Registration will open in the fall at www.signexpo.org and at ImpressionsExpo.com. – D.S.
