Registration

Registration for IBS 2027 opens in September 2026 through the official IBS registration portal. Fees and deadlines for 2027 had not been posted at the time of writing; the 2026 structure provides a guide to expected tiers.

IBS offers two main pass types:

  1. Expo+Education Pass — 3-day access to all 120+ education sessions, 3-day entry to the IBS and KBIS exhibit floors and IBS Centrals, and post-show access to the on-demand recorded session library.
  2. Expo Pass — 3-day entry to the IBS and KBIS exhibit floors and IBS Centrals (non-refundable).

Pricing tiers stair-step from September (lowest) through Early, Regular, and Onsite (highest), with significant discounts for NAHB members. A First-Time Attendee discount is available to NAHB members attending IBS for the first time. Discounted Student and Faculty rates are offered, and a Spouse registration option is available. Non-Exhibiting Suppliers pay a separate (higher) rate.

For IBS-related housing, the IBS room block deadline historically falls in late January before the show. Register and book hotels through the official IBS site at buildersshow.com.

History

The NAHB International Builders' Show is produced by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), a Washington, DC-based trade association that represents more than 140,000 members and advocates for housing policy in the United States. According to NAHB, the Builders' Show has been bringing the residential construction industry together for 80+ years, making it the longest-running and largest annual light construction event in the world.

The show rotates between major U.S. convention cities, most recently completing a multi-year run at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando (IBS 2026, February 17–19, is billed as the final year in Orlando) before moving to Las Vegas for IBS 2027. IBS also co-locates with the NKBA Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) as part of Design & Construction Week®, a partnership that significantly expands the combined show floor and audience.

Venue & Travel

Venue

Las Vegas Convention Center

3150 Paradise Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

The Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) serves as the anchor venue for CES, with a campus spanning 4.6 million square feet. CES 2026 was the first major trade show held at the LVCC following completion of its $600 million renovation. The redesigned Grand Lobby connects the North and Central Halls and features stage programming, exhibits, and food service. The new Central Hall Atrium is defined by a striking glass curtain wall and dynamic digital display screens.

LVCC halls used during CES:

  • Central Hall — flagship space for major global technology brands
  • North Hall — additional exhibit and conference space
  • West Hall — home to the Mobility Stage and automotive/advanced mobility exhibits
  • South Halls — additional exhibit space
  • Central Plaza — outdoor connecting hub and boarding point for the Tech Express venue shuttle

The LVCC Loop, an underground autonomous vehicle transit system, provides free and fast cross-campus transportation connecting West Hall with Central and South Halls. CES 2026 spanned 12 official venues across three main campuses totaling more than 2.6 million net square feet: the LVCC Campus, the Venetian Campus (Venetian Expo, hosting Eureka Park and the Digital Health Summit), and the C Space Campus at ARIA Resort & Casino. Additional CES venues included Fontainebleau Las Vegas (CES Foundry) and the Las Vegas Sphere (Lenovo Tech World keynote).

Parking

There is no public parking available at the LVCC or the Venetian Expo during CES. ADA parking is available at official CES hotels on a first-come, first-served basis; check directly with individual hotel properties for their parking policies and rates.

Passenger pick-up and drop-off at the LVCC is permitted at the S2, C5, and West Hall entrances only. Drivers must remain with their vehicles at all times; standing or unattended parking is not allowed at these entrances.

For cross-campus movement, the LVCC Loop (free underground transit) connects West Hall with Central and South Halls. The Vegas Loop offers paid rides between the LVCC and nearby hotel properties — Resorts World, Encore, and Westgate — for a small fare.

Getting There

Nearest Airport: Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) is located approximately 3 miles south of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Rideshare, taxis, and rental cars are all available at the terminal.

CES Complimentary Hotel Shuttles: Free shuttle service runs from select official CES hotels to and from the LVCC and Venetian Expo, Monday–Friday during the show week. Download the shuttle route flyer at ces.tech for specific stops and schedules.

Venue-to-Venue Express Shuttles:

  • Tech Express (Route 9): Runs between the LVCC (boarding at Central Plaza, near the Monorail walkway) and the Venetian Expo (boarding on Sands Ave.).
  • C Space Shuttle (Route 7): Connects the LVCC and Venetian Expo to ARIA Resort & Casino, Tuesday–Thursday.

Las Vegas Monorail: Links the LVCC and Westgate to Strip hotels including MGM Grand, Flamingo, Harrah's/LINQ, Horseshoe/Paris, and Sahara. Hours: Monday 7 AM–midnight; Tuesday–Thursday 7 AM–2 AM; Friday–Sunday 7 AM–3 AM. Discounted Monorail passes can be added directly to your CES registration badge. Note: The Monorail does not serve the Venetian Expo — use the Tech Express shuttle for that route.

LVCC Loop / Vegas Loop:

  • The free LVCC Loop (underground autonomous transit) connects West Hall with Central and South Halls across the convention center campus.
  • The paid Vegas Loop connects the LVCC to Resorts World, Encore, and Westgate for a small fare.

Rideshare (Uber / Lyft): Designated pickup and drop-off zones: LVCC (outside South Hall near the Bronze Lot and Renaissance Hotel, or Diamond Lot near West Hall); Venetian Expo (main porte-cochere on Sands Ave.); ARIA (lower level, North Valet Lobby). Check in-app prompts for current pickup instructions.

Taxis: Available at all CES show venues, though lines can be lengthy at the end of each show day. CES shuttles or the Monorail are typically faster alternatives during peak hours.
