A Much Anticipated Kitchen & Bath Focus Retreat for Design Professionals and Enthusiasts.
KBIS | Las Vegas
February 24th - 27th, 2025
Experience a different side of Las Vegas with curated design events, and spend time at one of North America's largest trade conventions, the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show. KBIS is co-located with the NAHB International Builders Show (IBS), which together make up Design & Construction Week®.
This isn’t your typical Las Vegas trip. Our goal is to show you a side of the city that you haven’t seen before. Yes - you will spend some time on the famous strip, but our goal is to also experience local culture and history together. This will be a small group trip of 8 - 10 people, encouraging connection amongst peers and engagement during intimate dinners with new friends.
What is KBIS?
As the premier event of its kind, the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show showcases the latest trends, cutting-edge products, and breakthrough technologies in kitchen and bath design. Attendees are treated to an immersive experience with hands-on demonstrations, expert-led sessions, and an opportunity to network with the best minds in the industry.
From stunning product reveals to insightful discussions, KBIS provides a dynamic platform where creativity meets functionality. Attendees are immersed in a world of groundbreaking designs and revolutionary products, enjoying interactive exhibits, inspiring keynote speakers, and valuable networking opportunities that spark new ideas and collaborations.
Why Join a Guided Design Retreat?
Trade shows are overwhelming | KBIS covers over 500,000 square feet of floor space, has 670 + exhibitors and over 110,000 attendees. Overwhelmed yet? Traveling to attend an event of this magnitude is a big investment, not only your money, but also your time.
Learn From Others | As your host, and fellow interior designer, I have attended 8+ KBIS shows in Chicago, Las Vegas and Orlando. I’ve also been a board member with the NKBA and have learned how to be efficient with my time to see everything that KBIS has to offer, what to skip and where to find all of the extras.
Navigation & Time Constraints | Making the most of your trip in a limited amount of time can be exhausting (believe me, I know)! Did you also know that beyond the regular trade show, there are numerous demonstrations, stage presentations, keynote speakers, happy hours and more? I will provide a custom itinerary to navigate the show, and we will take advantage of the many networking and educational opportunities that not every attendee realizes is available.

Discover Together
Have you ever gone on a weekend trip with your partner or friends, and felt like it would be really nice to have someone else around that wants to discuss things like what the restaurant bar is made of, or how interesting the architecture of the hotel is? Yes, me too! Join our group to get the most out of your experience together. Learn from the questions others ask, discuss your favorite discoveries over a glass of wine at dinner and let’s help each other take photos and videos to share on your social media platforms!
Results
Get rid of that imposter syndrome and walk away knowing you’ve attended one of the premier events for professional learning and cutting edge industry technology.

Bonus | Did I mention getting outside of the typical Vegas strip? Whether it be visiting a lesser known museum and history lesson or private home tour… we will be curating special moments, sure to entertain all design enthusiasts.
Where Do We Stay?
I will figure that out for you! With hundreds of thousands of people ascending to Las Vegas at once, we will be booking a hotel block with the official event planner of KBIS. Transportation to and from the convention center will be figured out ahead of time, and will take advantage of the hotel/event bussing system and monorail connections with the convention center.
