You Can't Recreate This Room.

Some of the most valuable conversations at Light It Up Expo never happen on stage.

They happen over lunch. In the hallway. At a vendor booth. During a roundtable. At happy hour.

You'll be surrounded by business owners who understand the wins, the challenges, and the opportunities that come with building a lighting company.

250+

People came together in 2026. We're building an even bigger room for 2027.
