Los Angeles Show Venues Join Forces

Oct 13, 2016

The LA Mart and Urban Expositions have joined to reorganize the Winter 2017 edition of Los Angeles Gift and Home Market Week. The two management teams have shifted LA Gift and Home Market Week dates to a February pattern to avoid conflicts with other industry shows and give marketgoers access to significant downtown LA hotel rate savings. One badge will provide access to both venues and complimentary shuttle service will be provided between venues and select host hotels.

"The thousands of leading lines showcased in the LA Mart showrooms, combined with Urban's 200+ major exhibitors will locate order-writing manufacturers in one convenient setting, creating an easy, efficient, and exciting market experience for our valued buyers," said Frank Joens, Sr. Vice President, General Manager, LA Mart. "The downtown Los Angeles area has been undergoing a true renaissance, offering unprecedented opportunities for cutting edge lifestyle trends to emerge in an environment that is both entertaining and business-friendly, reflecting the revitalization going on all around us in the Los Angeles community."

As part of the market festivities, the LA Mart and Urban Expositions will host the "Winter Blast" Market Party on Saturday, February 18 beginning at 6 pm, 2nd floor, LA Mart Trade Hall. Attendees are invited to enjoy a lite snack, adult beverages, great music and dancing to celebrate Market, Los Angeles style!
