What to expect at Broadcasting Americas

Arts and entertainment events mix creative and technical audiences. Expect networking-heavy days, showcases and performances, and visitors who value portfolios and live examples over brochures.

With a single day on the floor, every hour counts: arrive early, keep breaks short and in shifts so the booth is never empty, and book any important meetings before the doors open. Expect most visitors to be producers and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

How exhibitors should prepare for Broadcasting Americas

Here is a working timeline counted back from the opening day, December 10, 2026:

1. 16 weeks before (Aug 20, 2026) · date passed, do it now if you haven't

Preparation tips for arts and entertainment shows

• Prepare a short reel or portfolio that plays without sound; exhibit halls are loud.
• Schedule meetings with venues, promoters or buyers ahead of time.
• Check rights and licensing for any music or video you plan to play at the booth.

Booth tips for Broadcasting Americas

• Show work, not slides: screens, samples or a live demonstration.
• Ask what the visitor is producing next and when.
• Have a simple way to share your portfolio digitally after the conversation.
• Walk the hall at Anaheim Convention Center during move-in to see which entrances and aisles carry the most traffic, and set up your booth so it faces that flow.
• Give every person on the booth a clear role (greeting, demos, qualifying) so nobody waits for someone else to start a conversation.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.
