Registration opens for PRINTING United Expo 2026 in Las Vegas

PRINTING United Alliance has announced that registration is officially open for PRINTING United Expo 2026. This year, the event takes place September 23–25, at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV, USA. PRINTING United Expo brings the entire industry together under one roof, spanning commercial, apparel, wide-format, labels and packaging, mailing, in-plant, industrial, and more.

Registration and full event details are now available here.

“PRINTING United Expo continues to raise the bar as the industry evolves, growing in both scale and impact each year,” states Josh Carruth, EVP, Expositions, PRINTING United Alliance. “We are delivering far more than a traditional trade show. This is where the industry comes to see what’s next, make meaningful connections, and drive business forward. 

“And, while 2026 is already shaping up to be the most exciting event yet on all fronts, we may have a few surprises left in store that we’ll be sharing in the coming weeks – stay tuned,” he adds.

What’s new

The 2026 Expo launches with a newly redesigned website and enhanced digital experience, making it easier than ever for attendees to explore exhibitors, plan their visit, and maximize time on the show floor. This year’s event continues its rapid growth, with the show floor already over 90% sold and nearly 650 exhibitors already signed up to showcase the latest equipment, technologies, and solutions – many making their global debut in Las Vegas.

Attendees can expect a dynamic mix of:
• Live equipment demonstrations and new product launches across every segment of print. 
• Education sessions covering the industry’s most critical and emerging topics, including automation, AI, workflow efficiency, sustainability, and business growth opportunities.
• Hands-on experiences designed to bring innovation to life and drive real-world applications, such as the Apparel Zone, the ASI Pavilion, Spill the Ink Roundtable discussions, Print-On-Demand area, and much more. 
• Expanded PRINTING AI programming to help printers better understand, evaluate, and implement artificial intelligence across their operations.
• The Opening Night Party returns on Wednesday, September 23. Celebrate the show with colleagues and peers as the big event kicks off.

Expo All-Stars return

Returning for its second “season,” the All-Stars program will once again bring global industry ambassadors to the show floor, offering guided insights, curated pathways, and peer-to-peer expertise to help attendees experience everything the Expo has to offer.

Student Day 3.0

Also, back and bigger than ever is Student Day, continuing the Alliance’s commitment to workforce development. In partnership with the Print and Graphics Scholarship Foundation, now the Foundation for Graphic Communication Education, the program connects students directly with leading companies on the show floor and, in 2026, will even more closely highlight career pathways in print and facilitate meaningful conversations around internships and job opportunities.

PRINTING United Alliance

At the center of it all, the PRINTING United Alliance booth will serve as a hub for attendees to engage with the organization’s unmatched portfolio of resources, available year-round, 24/7/365, including training and certifications through its iLEARNING+ platform, research, advocacy, HR guidance, EHS, and business tools designed to support success across the printing industry.

In addition to the expansive show floor and education, PRINTING United Expo 2026 will feature a growing lineup of co-located meetings, global partnerships, and industry collaborations – further solidifying its role as the central gathering place for the worldwide printing community.

“The Expo was recently named a Trade Show Executive ‘Fastest 50’ show, as well as captured an award for the ‘Fastest Growing Show in Sheer Attendance,’” Carruth continues. “Our commitment to delivering an event that spotlights the industry’s very latest technology and solutions, and truly has something for everyone, is what we strive for and keeps the event fresh, exciting, and relevant year over year. We look forward to having you join us in Vegas to experience it all.”
