Registration for the convenience industry's biggest global event, the NACS Show, is officially open. The NACS Show is headed to Las Vegas this year from October 6-9, with the Expo opening on October 7.
To secure early bird pricing, registration must be completed by June 12. Full conference registration includes access to all general sessions, education sessions, the Expo and the official NACS Show Kick-Off Party.
This year's NACS Show will focus on "ROI: Return on Insight," reflecting the fast-paced c-store environment in which operators are balancing labor, fueling, category management, foodservice, technology, regulatory shifts and channel blurring—all at the same time. Retailers need insights that sharpen decisions and deliver measurable results. The ideas, new products and services and connections found at the NACS Show can help.
Here is what you will find at the NACS Show:
Expo: more than 435,000-square-feet with over 1,200 exhibitors across five categories: Facility Development & Store Operations, Food Equipment & Foodservice Programs, Fuel Equipment & Services, In-Store Merchandise and Technology.
Cool New Products Room: the latest products and innovations shaping the industry. The Preview Room is a must for anyone launching a new product into the convenience channel. Attendees can scan hundreds of new products and create their own shopping list for the Expo.
New Exhibitor Area: the latest products and solutions from companies that have never exhibited at a NACS Show before. In 2025, more than 150 companies were featured in the space.
Education Sessions: 50-plus learning opportunities delivered by retailers for retailers. Expand your knowledge and expertise in the areas that matter most to you and your company.
At the 2025 NACS Show in Chicago, more than 25,000 attendees—a record for a Chicago-hosted NACS Show—swarmed a 440,000-net-square-foot Expo, 50 Education Sessions and four days of General Sessions. Click here to see 2025 NACS Show highlights.
