At the end of Day 1 , ISPA Conference attendees will let their excitement overflow at the ISPA Welcome

Party from 7:30-10 pm at Mandalay Bay ’ s Daylight Beach Club [ Confirm party venue name ]. The party will be outdoors , and the May heat in Las Vegas will definitely be something to keep in mind as you ’ re planning your party attire .

There ’ s no shortage of intriguing exhibitors ready to connect and share their services with you on the ISPA Expo Floor . Each booth is different , providing attendees with a diverse atmosphere that has something to offer everyone .
