Questions people ask
5 answeredThe 2026 event starts on November 17.
The event takes place at Hyatt Centric Chicago O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois.
The organizer identifies brand owners, converters, printers, suppliers, and technology providers as audience groups.
Professionals in other label formats or general packaging would find it narrow, since the focus is on sleeve labels alone, and it is a niche specialist gathering rather than a broad packaging show.
Attendees at packaging and label industry conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks and a collared shirt or blouse, with a blazer for presentations.
