This year’s Utility Expo – produced by the Association of Equipment Manufacturers – is expected to be the biggest show yet for utility industry professionals, exceeding the size and scope of the last expo held in 2021.
The event, which runs September 26-28 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, will feature more than 850 exhibitors and over 50 educational sessions. New data from The Utility Expo indicates that this year’s show will have 6% more exhibit space than the record-breaking 2021 show.
“Our team worked to create additional space this year while grouping similar product types together better, making it even easier for everyone to find what they’re looking for,” said John Rozum, show director. “That’s important given the show covers more than 1.4 million square feet of indoor and outdoor exhibits.”
Attendees will have access to several new features at the 2023 Utility Expo. For example, the Community Zone experience, located in the North Lobby, will offer daily events, including presentations, live music and local product samples. The new “Utility Rocks” street party – featuring a local rock band at the Fourth Street Live! outdoor stage – takes place September 27 at 8 p.m. Another opportunity not to be missed is the new Safety Symposium, which offers 10 sessions and two different certifications from the American Traffic Safety Services Association.
