United States. Early results indicate that the 2015 AHR Expo, to be held Jan. 26-28 in Chicago, is on track to break attendance records.
"To accommodate the demand for exhibition space in Chicago, we've had to expand the design of the space," said Clay Stevens, president of International Exposition Co., which produces and manages the AHR Expo. "Chicago is historically the venue for our biggest events, and it's very encouraging that so many HVAC/R manufacturers and suppliers have already reserved space. And coming from the record attendance in 2014 in New York, all signs, including economic indicators, are pointing to another big show."
Stevens said the 2015 program is poised to build on optimism in the market, driven by generally positive news about the economy and rising demand in the construction sector.
The last AHR Expo in Chicago in 2012 had set the all-time attendance record at the time with more than 58,000 total registered attendees, including 39,000 visitors. That record was surpassed by this year's AHR Expo in New York City, with nearly 61,000 registered attendees, including more than 42,000 visitors.
