WOC slowly getting back to normal
Published 3/1, 2023 at 14:08Again it is time for World of Concrete, the only international annual
construction show. WOC has also managed to run every year during the
pandemic, even if the dates were changed at one time. Here we take a
brief look of how the show is set to look like in January 2023.
The show takes place from 17 to 19 January. As usual it takes place at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Even though another US mega show is to take place the same year, ConExpo-Con/Agg, also in Las Vegas but in March, WOC has a pretty good line up. Almost 1,200 companies are booked to exhibit at this point which is around 100 exhibitors more than in January 2022, which is quite good considering 2023 is a Conexpo year. And when compared to the show is 2020, the numbers of exhibitors were just 100 more. Let’s hope there are also good visitor numbers.
A great reunion expected
Most suppliers in the concrete sawing and drilling, concrete floor grinding and polishing as well as some demolition equipment suppliers are to exhibit. Just about two months ago, another mega show, actually the world’s biggest, took place in Munich, Germany. However, exhibitors at bauma did not reveal as many innovations as expected, so the news at WOC will probably be more or less the same as was found at the bauma.
During the three show days, Las Vegas will be exciting as usual during a World of Concrete week. However, WOC has cut down from four days to three and that is possibly a good idea considering the situation with the pandemic and the ongoing war in the Ukraine. At the show grounds, all is arranged with busses for commuting to and from the hotels and the mono rail train stopping at the exhibition center. As usual, there will be a number of seminars to attend starting on 16 January continuing to 18 January. Detailed information on the seminars can be found at the WOC official website. Visitors are expected from all over the world, but this time, as with the recent previous shows, the numbers of foreign visitor will not be as high as a few years back before the pandemic started. Quite a large number of visitors are expected from North America however.
