Packed: Strip rates typically spike. Book rooms 4-6 months out and lock private rooms early.
NAHB International Builders' Show (IBS) 2027 falls mostly in the week of Feb 1, 2027, which we rate Packed on trade-show attendance: about 110,569 trade-show attendees in town (pro-rated), counting NAHB International Builders' Show (IBS) 2027 and 2 other tracked shows that overlap its dates.
1 show(s) in this window have no published attendance, so the real number is higher.
Overlapping shows
- TISE 2027 (The International Surface Event) Feb 2-4, 2027 · Mandalay Bay Convention Center · ~16,787

Each Monday-Sunday week gets one score: the pro-rated attendance of every tracked trade show in town that week. The score sets the week’s trade label. A trade show carries the trade label of the week that holds most of its days (ties go to the busier week), on every tile and page. A week’s headline label can be lifted by the leisure floor (“Busy (leisure)” or “Peak (leisure)”); trade-show tiles never inherit it. Method.
