15 September 2010 – Penton Media’s WasteExpo announces revised future dates and venues for North America’s largest event serving the $56 billion solid waste & recycling industry including a scheduled return to New Orleans.
2011 marks WasteExpo’s return to Dallas, Texas to the Dallas Convention Center, May 10-12. It has been seven years since WasteExpo’s last event in Dallas and WasteExpo is looking forward to returning to the Lone Star State and welcoming new participants particularly from Mexico, Central and South America.
WasteExpo 2012 will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, May 1-3, 2012. Having last been there in 2009, Las Vegas is always a popular destination for the waste industry.
After a 10 year absence, WasteExpo returns to the Big Easy to the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, Louisiana, May 21-23, 2013 to celebrate its 45th Anniversary. There’s no better place to celebrate this milestone anniversary and WasteExpo is proud to be able to support the New Orleans economy as the city continues to rebound from Hurricane Katrina’s lasting effects and the recent BP oil spill.
In 2014, WasteExpo will return to the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia, April 1-3. Atlanta has always been a welcoming city for WasteExpo participants with its southern hospitality and strong regional attendee draw.
And in 2015, WasteExpo will return to Las Vegas June 2-4 to the Las Vegas Convention Center and once again experience the excitement this popular city has to offer.
Rita Ugianskis-Fishman, Managing Director of Penton Media’s Waste Industry Group stated: “We realize the importance of rotating venues throughout the United States. This ensures all solid waste and recycling industry employees have the ability to conveniently and cost effectively access the educational content and cutting-edge exhibitors that will help them do their jobs more effectively and efficiently, while being mindful of their company’s/department’s travel budgets. With the help of a fully engaged WasteExpo Advisory Committee, I am very confident these revised dates and venues will serve the industry very well and am sincerely appreciative for their guidance in this importance process.”
