IADS Exclusive: NRF Event 2024: what’s new?

The 2024 edition of the NRF Big Show took place on 14 – 17 January. The four-day event was fully back on track, with more than 40,000 attendees and several exhibitors surpassing last year’s attendance (1,100), which was already a record. Overall, the event felt overwhelming, not so much due to the number of exhibitors and the energy in the fair section, but through the lines at the entrances of the conference rooms, which were often crowded and had to turn down people. Excitement was palpable, and the international crowd, as well as brands (and not only vendors), were back. The message was that the event was back to its pre-pandemic heights.
