After a triumphant inaugural edition in Miami and a landmark 20th-anniversary celebration, Cosmoprof North America (CPNA) is thrilled to announce its return to the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas. Scheduled to take place from July 23 – 25, 2024, CPNA promises an unparalleled showcase of innovation, networking opportunities, and educational insights for the beauty industry. The 21st edition arises as the beauty sector rebounds with a notably robust performance in 2023, distinguishing it as the sole U.S. industry within general merchandise retail categories to achieve positive year-over-year unit sales growth, according to Circana.
Following two editions at an alternate venue, CPNA returns to Mandalay Bay Convention Center, a beloved venue known for fostering collaboration and connection. The move, a result of popular demand, allows exhibitors and attendees to network, socialize, and rest all in one place.
