This year’s trade show is set to top last year’s event, with 967 booths reserved as of late October. (Last year’s show in Las Vegas drew a record 933 booths.) Convention registration is running just 2 percent behind last year’s record-setting meeting, which drew 6,114 people, according to STAFDA’s executive director, Georgia Foley.

STAFDA expanded its trade show to 12 hours last year and will continue that tradition in Nashville. The show will span two days, running from noon to 6 p.m. on Monday, Nov.5, and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 6.
