The ISPA Conference mobile app is also a wonderful resource. You can download it by searching “ISPA Conference” in the app store on your mobile device.
Where do exhibitors go for booth setup? Exhibitors will check-in at the Shoreline Expo Hall entry doors located on Level Two in the Mandalay Bay South Convention Center during their allocated move-in time. The move-in schedule can be found here.
Need assistance with your hotel reservation? ISPA does not manage the individual hotel reservations, so please reach out to the hotel in which you booked your reservation if you need assistance.
Need to register or make a change to your existing registration? Spa members can visit the Registration desk onsite to register during open registration hours.
Resource Partner Vendors must exhibit or sponsor at the ISPA Conference to attend or participate at the event or other hospitality events onsite at the host venue. The qualifying definitions for both service provider and vendor are outlined below. Exhibiting and sponsoring exposure opportunities are sold out for the 2023 Conference and onsite registration will not be available for vendors. To learn more or express interest for next year’s Conference, we encourage you to contact kirsten.wright@ispastaff.com.

See below to learn more about ISPA’s official policy on attendee eligibility implemented by the ISPA Board:

ELIGIBLE REGISTRANTS

Current ISPA members within the spa, corporate spa headquarter, corporate spa link, spa under development, student, transitional, service provider or educator categories may register to attend the ISPA Conference. For more information on ISPA membership categories, please click here. All resource partners who qualify as a vendor must exhibit or sponsor at the ISPA Conference to attend the event. To learn more about these opportunities contact 1.859.226.4372 or ispa@ispastaff.com. The qualifying definitions for both service provider and vendor are outlined below.

Service Provider: Business has a sole focus of providing professional services. A service provider may not distribute, produce or sell products within the spa industry or serve as an employee or official representative of any company that meets the definition of an ISPA vendor. A product is defined as anything that is made or grown to be sold (including digital or web-based products). Examples of ISPA service providers include full-service consultants who do not sell, represent or distribute spa products, educational institutions and investors.

Vendor: Business distributes, produces or sells products within the spa industry. A product is defined as anything that is made or grown to be sold (including digital or web-based products). Examples may include companies that sell tangible products, virtual products, events, publications, insurance, software, deal promotions, online directories, etc. In order to attend at a member rate, the registrant must have an active membership at the time of the Conference.

New Resource Partner: Typically, ISPA requires all vendor members to either exhibit or sponsor a portion of the ISPA Conference in order to attend. However, a new option is available this year that would provide first-time ISPA vendor members with an exception if they would prefer to simply attend the Conference rather than exhibit. ISPA vendor members who have never attended an ISPA Conference with any organization can register to attend as a non-exhibiting resource partner. The New Resource Partner registration fee is $3,500 for one attendee within the organization, and advertising or soliciting the brand in any capacity with this registration type is prohibited. This registration type is meant to allow new resource partners to attend the event like a spa attendee, and allow the company to experience the event before choosing to exhibit or sponsor in the future.

CONVINCE YOUR BOSS

Time to Manage Up.
Bosses are busy and are generally concerned about ROI, so let’s go in with some strategy.
Tie your journey in with your boss’s.
If you don’t know your boss’s goals, you should probably start by learning them and figuring out how to help reach them. Chances are, your trip to Conference will align with their interests. Whether it’s our professional education, scouting out new products and services or bringing back life lessons from our keynote speakers, you can come here on a mission.
Have an after plan.
Going to Conference and gathering knowledge and inspiration is one thing. Putting what you’ve learned into action is a whole other level. Figure out how you’re going to put what you’ve learned into action or at least figure out how you can bring back information for the entire team and let them help reach your boss’s goals, too. We definitely recommend you have a nice team brief ready when you get back.
Promise to bring back samples.
There’s usually a few goodie bags that people return with. Maybe if you promise a few samples? Oh, and bring back business cards and lots of photos, too.
