Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q. What are the new dates for Digital Signage Experience 2023? 

Following a very successful DSE 2022 show in Las Vegas, we have listened to the feedback from our customers, attendees, vendors, and the Las Vegas Convention Center and decided to move the dates for our 2023 event.  Despite being a week earlier than the Formula 1 event, we heard from our community on-site that the DSE 2023 original dates (mid-November) still raised concerns about the availability of hotels, cost of travel, and potential labor shortages.  As a result, we are moving the dates further away from the Formula 1 event to ensure everybody has the best possible experience and we can hold another successful DSE event.  

Original dates were:  

Expo: November 13 - 14, 2023 

The new show dates are as follows: 

Expo: December 4 - 5, 2023 

Conference: December 3 - 5, 2023 

LDI and XLIVE will also be held in West Hall next door to DSE on the same dates to provide more synergy with those shows.  

As you know, we secure the Las Vegas Convention Center more than a year in advance. We were fortunate to work with our Las Vegas partners to confirm this new time slot and are particularly excited to be able to move into West Hall a year earlier than planned.

 

Q. Is DSE merging with other shows? 

No. Questex has no plan to merge these brands or events. While there is a benefit to holding the shows over the same dates, and some synergy certainly exists in the businesses, these are distinct audiences with different needs. 

 

Q. What are these other shows about? 

Live Design International (LDI) is a trade show and conference, paired with a digital content resource called Live Design, aimed at the entertainment/production technology market for those designing and working on stages and in venues. Think: lighting and stage designers, audio engineers, rigging professionals, media server programmers, content creators, and more. It comprises basically everything you’d see on a stage or in a production, except the performer, and any special effects you’d see at a special event or in a club or even a museum. 

XLIVE is also a trade show and conference, part of the LDI event, for those working in fan engagement or event planning. It’s where planners, producers, and venues can find solutions in event technology to digitally transform their experiences. Think: festival producers, promoters, event agencies, corporate meeting planners, trade show managers, and more. 

Combined, these two events usually bring in more than 12,000 attendees and nearly 300 exhibitors on a separate exhibit floor that will be open to all DSE attendees. 

 

Q. How can I stay abreast of DSE news? 

DSE is committed to engaging its audience all year. We have launched a monthly newsletter to keep you up to date on all trade show and conference news, as well as regular webcasts, virtual conference session opportunities, and other digital offerings, including interviews with speakers, trending topics, exhibitor spotlights, and more.

Q. I want to exhibit and reach some of the verticals that Questex serves. How can I do that?

As a company, we can help you reach those audiences and many others, in fact. Through our far-reaching and varied verticals and channels, we can help brands reach DSE-related customers in Education, Healthcare, Hotels, Restaurants, Bars, and more. Contact our sales team to learn more about the many industries Questex serves. 

 

Q: What health and safety measures will you be taking at the event? 

  • The number one priority at DSE is the health & safety of all participants. Our team has been working in partnership with the Las Vegas Convention Center on how to provide a safe and secure environment and will have updates as we get closer to show dates.

  • The DSE exhibit halls and conference areas will be a safe and controlled environment where exhibitors, sponsors, attendees, speakers, contractors, and vendors can interact, conduct meetings, and form meaningful relationships. As we move towards the opening of the event, we want you to know we are taking every step available to create a safe and secure show experience. 

  • We will have masks and hand sanitizer available onsite, as well as a custodial crew working to keep all lobbies, conference rooms and show management spaces clean.
