Freakish weather (this is the first snowfall on Valentine's Day in Las Vegas history) and plenty of cosplay craziness at the convention downstairs added to the reputation of powersports industry tradeshows in the past, but it was the action on the showfloor that was really crazy! Confirming that this industry really is better together, the tally for AIMExpo 2023 showed a surge in dealer attendance and an expanded number of exhibitors. More than 1,675 dealership types representing 875 standalone storefronts shared the love in the days following Valentine's.
This year's AIMExpo also featured new product announcements from 32 brands, multiple OEMs & distributors, hundreds of aftermarket players, non-stop eBike demos, an epic industry party, compelling keynote from Angelle Sampey, the return of the Dealernews Top 100 and most importantly, a packed show floor at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
"Thank you for making AIMExpo 2023 one of our most successful shows yet," says MIC VP of Market Expansion Cinnamon Kernes. "The feedback from exhibitors, dealers and the greater powersports industry professionals has been overwhelmingly positive. It directly reflects the energy that was brought to Las Vegas!"
"AIMExpo is a vital industry platform," adds Andre Albert, Director, Marketing & Events, Motorcycle Industry Council. "It is the only place where your entire industry comes together in one place, at one time." Here is the snapshot of who came out to Las Vegas.
