A full schedule of on-floor programming is available on the LightFair website at www.lightfair.com/tradeshow/schedule/#/courses. For its 2023 edition, LightFair has forged two new partnerships -- with NYCxDesign Festival and the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) -- that will extend connections as a part of the market experience. NYCxDesign Festival is New York City's official celebration of design. Running May 18-25 across all five boroughs, the design week attracts tens of thousands of visitors to New York City to celebrate global creative accomplishments, share new ideas and inspire through design. LightFair's 2023 partnership with NYCxDesign is a part of a comprehensive design experience that will include a robust schedule of education in the IALD Designery and curated bus tours to lighting installations around the city. ICFF, which runs May 21-23, at New York City's Javits Center, is North America's leading platform for contemporary furnishing design. With its emphasis on original and sustainable design, ICFF presents a broad range of furnishing product for residential, contract and hospitality environments to an audience of architects, interior designers, retailers, distributors, developers, and press. Both LightFair and ICFF badges will grant access to both shows, allowing attendees to draw cross-category inspiration. The 2023 LightFair Trade Show and Conference will focus on future-shaping innovations and an incredible attendee experience driven by new product discovery, networking and on-floor education, Sunday, May 21, through Thursday, May 25, at the Javits Center in New York City. Registration is complimentary for IES and IALD members as well as students. For more information and to register, visit www.lightfair.com/attend.
