The Power of Partnership; Delivering a World of Juvenile Products

The ABC Kids Expo is the premier trade show for the juvenile products industry in the Western Hemisphere. The ABC Kids Expo launched in September of 2002 utilizing 250,000 gross square feet of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Now heading into our sixth year, we have grown to our present size of 1,000,000 gross square feet, with more than 1000 exhibitors.

The ABC Kids Expo is a private trade show for the juvenile products industry and is not open to the general public. The main focus of the expo is on products from newborn through teen, predominantly in the areas of furniture, bedding, room décor, baby gear, gift and layette, toys and related accessories.
