What Attendees Say
“This was by far the best lighting show I have ever experienced. It far surpassed all trade show experiences I have been involved in. Keep up the great work!”
“You all spoiled us well. The ride share voucher was super convenient and ensured everyone who planned on drinking got home safe. The check-in process was expedited. Exhibitor booths were decorated and fully stocked with literature. Food selection was vegetarian friendly. The added features such as the photo booth, prop and the scavenger hunt gave us an added layer of fun. Entertainment was top notch.”
“Everything. From the venue, food, performers, parking was easy—it was seamless.”
“Pre-registration was done so no long wait times for entrance. Good access to manufacturer partners. Performance was able to give personal introductions to many relevant manufacturer partners to make real connections.”
“This is the second PLS show I have been to and I think you guys do a phenomenal job making it enjoyable for everyone. It felt like there was a big improvement on how the food was set up and the lines to get food. Great job!”
“The atmosphere was great!!! The vendor spaces were great with lots of room to move around. Loved the Uber voucher. A perfect evening”
“I liked the way that your sales reps were networking. I met or spoke with almost all of my sales reps.”
“Layout was better this year. Its the event to look forward to every year!”
Excellent show overall! It was valuable and fun both in my capacity as a designer but also for the lighting students I had with me. All of the manufacturers present were helpful and supportive. Keep up the good work!
