LAS VEGAS — Considered the premier gathering of the flooring industry and held at the peak of the buying season, Informa Markets’ The International Surface Event (tise) brought more than 650 brands and an estimated 30,000 industry professionals to the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
In 2023, tise entered a partnership with Las Vegas Market to formalize the overlapping dates of tise and the latter’s winter edition, making it convenient for buyers to visit both events to see the latest in home furnishings, design and flooring in the same week.
Show organizers made it easy for attendees to move from one to the other, providing complimentary admission passes for buyers and up to $40 in Lyft rides between the two venues.
Amie Gilmore, CEM, Show Director of tise, has called the partnership “an unparalleled opportunity for attendees to explore the entire supply chain, gain insights into the broader sector and identify new opportunities within a one-stop-shop environment in Las Vegas.”

However, for 2027, tise will be held Feb. 4-7, at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center, while the winter Las Vegas Market, which is located at World Market Center Las Vegas, will take place Jan. 24-28. The 2028 dates have not yet been announced.
Tise is known for showcasing both traditional and cutting-edge products, and for its guided show floor tours, hands-on training sessions and curated natural stone program for architects, designers and fabricators.
New this year, the VIP Lounge offered perks like expedited badge pick-up, a meeting space and refreshments. The annual State of the Industry 2026 presentation brought together leaders to discuss market trends and the “What’s Hot | Best of Awards” were another show highlight.
