Take part in the Nightclub & Bar Convention
and Trade Show in 2010! Why?

The Nightclub & Bar Show is by far the largest and most dynamic beverage expo in the country, dedicated to growth, new products, and top notch nightlife events that help our attendees network and gain valuable industry knowledge. Our attendees walk away with the tools they need to better serve their customers, which at the end of the day helps them grow their business. We’re in the business of providing tools, insight, and knowledge (with some pretty smokin’ events too) so that our attendees walk away empowered and ready to hit the ground running!

Don’t just take our word for it…
Read what our customers had to say!

“Nightclub & Bar delivered everything promised, a big crowd,
a great party, and awesome times. Thanks as always . . .”
-Michael Fuller, Vice President, N9NE Group

convention.  It was an invaluable experience and a huge success.”
- Sujit Kundu, SKAM Artist

“The show provides great access to people I need to keep
in front of to build my business”
-Carl Manino, CEO, Intermedia Services.com

“Our participation in the Nightclub & Bar show has been very
successful. This show coincides with our launch week in
Las Vegas and is a great place to position our brand with
key business associates, buyers, potential buyers, and
friends. The show’s event management team have been
fantastic and they have been very attentive to our people
in ensuring everything is going smoothly for us. We will
definitely be back next year.”
-IS Vodka, Madeline Vinski, CEO

“It’s been a great show. Busy for us and wonderful for our new
products like Red Stag and Maker’s Mark Mint Julep (Pre-made).
The reception to the new products has been very positive.”
-Beam Global Spirits & Wine, Inc.
Ken Ruff, Vice President Customer Management: On Premise

“The Las Vegas Show was a real success this year and it shows
just how hard Questex worked to make it such a success, given
the economic problems that troubled our industry this year.
They obviously have a real loyal following to get such a great
turnout of both attendees and Vendors.”
-Ross B. Crawford, Director of Sales, Imagemark

“The Las Vegas Nightclub and Bar Show is more than just a fun
time — lots of great vendors, products, and networking… as
well as some pretty fantastic evening events! From the big
Shake It Up Mixologist competition to excellent seminars, there
is something for everyone.”
-Kathy Casey, President, Kathy Casey Food Studios & Liquid Kitchen

“As both a cocktail and spirit consultant and spirit brand owner,
I was really excited to see an exciting new commitment to
quality brands and ideas at this year’s Nightclub and Bar Show.
The seminars especially reflected this offering the show-goer a
peek into the future of American Mixology, featuring topics on
Cocktail Culture Development and the Use of Fresh Ingredients,
featuring today’s top bar talents. I truly look forward to what
Nightclub and Bar has planned for next year’s show and look
forward to having a greater role in this exciting event in years
to come.”
-Ryan Magarian, Liquid Relations/Aviation Gin

“The Nightclub and Bar show was an absolute blast – a great
mix of business, learning and social interaction! The persistent
hum of the trade show floor provided countless opportunities
for both networking and fun. It was a professional and vibrant
environment that people from all aspects of the industry should
not miss!”
-Kevin Brauch, The Thirsty Traveler

“The show offers customers new ways to increase profit levels
within their business. Besides networking, there were a lot of
wonderful new products available to take advantage of this
year. The nightly events at the clubs were fantastic and one
of my crew members even got up on stage with Sugar Ray
during his performance. Thanks again for hosting a great show
this year and we are all looking forward to attending the show
next year!”
-Steph Richardson, Bailey’s Cafe, Saratoga Springs, NY

“New Mexico State School of Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism
Management uses the Show as a value added teaching and
learning experience in our Beverage Management class. Forty
Students (you must be 21 to take the class) attended this year.
Students attend the keynote speaker presentations, the trade
show, and events at a variety of venues throughout the show.
Students evaluate the class and trip to the show as one of the
highlights of their college career. Not only do students who have
taken the class return on their own to attend in subsequent years
but graduates of the program find ways to attend because of the
information and networking occurring at the show. As Joel Belken
said, ‘I learned more about the beverage business in 3 days than I
ever thought possible, this is truly a great event.’”
-Dr. Keith Mandabach, Associate Professor, Hotel, Restaurant and
Tourism Management New Mexico State University

“The Nightclub & Bar Show, always a great party and a
terrific networking opportunity for all of us in the hospitality
industry, had a different tone this year with some new blood
in the organization like Donna Hood Crecca. Donna brought her
prodigious management and organizational skill to bear on the
show and added a business imperative to the proceedings that
substantially improved the sales opportunities for all. The whole
tone of the showroom floor was different and even in this
difficult market business was being done at a surprisingly brisk
pace. This new imperative will make the Nightclub & Bar
Show the must-attend sales opportunity of the year.”
-Dale DeGroff, King Cocktail
