Newly Announced Dates For DSE 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 2 - 5, 2023
LDI 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.
