Tradeshow Week, an industry news publication, will honor the 50 fastest-growing shows at its third annual awards event in Las Vegas October 28-30.

The Las Vegas winners include the ABC Kids Expo, ASD/AMD trade shows, Coffee Fest, Fencetech, Global Gaming Expo, International Pool and Spa Expo, International Security Conference West, KioskCom, MemoryTrends trade show, International Autobody Congress and Exposition (NACE), NBAA annual meeting and convention, PACK Expo and SEMA show.

The shows are selected by Tradeshow Week staff based on 50 percent net square footage growth and 50 percent net growth between 2002 and 2004. Some of the winning Las Vegas shows were not in town for all three years.

Top management from each winning show will attend a celebration weekend hosted by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority that will include a golf outing, conference and black-tie awards banquet.
