Conference & Stage Expo
2015 Stage Expo Smashed Records
USITT succeeded in bringing a bigger, better, newer Stage Expo than ever to Cincinnati this year.
More than 280 exhibitors filled nearly 45,000 square feet of the show floor at the Duke Energy Convention Center. Over 60 of them were new or returning after years away.
The result was a Stage Expo packed with exciting new technologies, avenues, and opportunities for learning, networking, and product resourcing.
