Questex’s International Beauty Show (IBS New York) and the International Esthetics, Cosmetics, & Spa Conference (IECSC New York) return to the Javits Convention Center March 5-7, 2023, co-locating to offer beauty and wellness professionals nearly 300,000 square feet of exhibit space, where hundreds of brands will be selling at professionals-only prices. IBS New York and IECSC New York are produced by Questex.
IBS and IECSC are planning for unprecedented events in 2023 as the two co-located events will take their first step towards becoming a unified, holistic wellness event where attendees can attend both shows at no additional cost, enabling them to not only walk both exhibit show floors, but attend any of the free classes at either event.
“By offering our audience two events, it’s an incredible opportunity to give stylists, estheticians, cosmetologists, solopreneurs, spa and salon owners, and anyone else in the beauty and spa industry more classes in wellness, skincare, beauty, and business building, and hundreds more brands to explore,” said Elizabeth Fantetti, partnership & event director, Questex’s Beauty & Spa Group. “There’s no additional fee to attend both shows, and the three-day pass is the absolute greatest value, as it gives attendees the most time to experience everything on the show floor for the best price.”
