About Groundwater Week

Groundwater Week is an environmental trade show expected to take place September 14–16, 2027 in Las Vegas, NV, United States. It runs for three days, opening on Tuesday and closing on Thursday. With more than 11 months to go, there is time to plan the booth, the budget and the meetings properly.

Shows like this one typically draw sustainability managers, municipal and utility officials, engineers, waste and water professionals and consultants. For registration, exhibitor packages and the floor plan, go to the official website, groundwaterweek.com.

What to expect at Groundwater Week

Environmental shows bring together public sector buyers, engineers and suppliers of water, waste, air and recycling solutions. Visitors want measurable results and proof of compliance with regulations.

Over three days, traffic usually peaks on the first two days and thins out on the last one. The quieter final day is a good time for longer conversations, visiting other stands and meeting suppliers. Expect most visitors to be sustainability managers and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

How exhibitors should prepare for Groundwater Week

Here is a working timeline counted back from the opening day, September 14, 2027 (expected date, so adjust once it is confirmed):

1. 16 weeks before (May 25, 2027)
   Confirm your booth space and read the exhibitor manual. Book hotels in Las Vegas while rates are still normal.
2. 8 weeks before (Jul 20, 2027)
   Order booth services (power, internet, furniture, cleaning) before the early-rate deadlines, and send graphics to print.
3. 4 weeks before (Aug 17, 2027)
   Ship freight to the advance warehouse if the organizer offers one. Book meetings with the visitors you most want to see. Set up lead capture and train the team on it.
4. One week before (Sep 7, 2027)
   Confirm freight arrived, share the staffing schedule, charge every device, and test your lead capture app with Wi-Fi turned off.

Preparation tips for environmental shows

• Prepare measured results: emissions reduced, water saved, waste diverted.
• Know the regulations driving demand in the show's region.
• Bring references from public sector or industrial customers.

Booth tips for Groundwater Week

• Show data and before-and-after results clearly.
• Ask about the visitor's regulatory deadlines and budgets.
• Have material ready for public tenders and procurement processes.
• Plan shifts of three to four hours. Standing and talking for three days wears people out, and tired staff let good leads walk past.
• 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.

Following up leads after Groundwater Week

Most of the value of a trade show is created after it closes. Public buyers often work through tenders, so keep follow-up formal and document-based.

1. Within 24 hours (by Sep 17, 2027)
   Send a short personal email to every hot lead. Mention one detail from your conversation so they remember you.
2. By Sep 19, 2027
   Send everything you promised at the booth: prices, samples, demo links. Log each lead in your CRM with its rating and notes.
3. By Sep 30, 2027
   Make a second, useful touch: a case study, a short video or an answer to the question they asked. Warm leads often reply to this one.
4. By Oct 16, 2027
   Review results: how many leads became meetings, what each lead cost, and whether Groundwater Week is worth returning to.

Getting to Las Vegas

Fly into Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), about 15 minutes by car from the Strip and the Las Vegas Convention Center. The Las Vegas Monorail runs along the east side of the Strip to the convention center, and the Venetian Expo and Mandalay Bay sit on the Strip itself. Big show weeks push room rates up sharply, so book early and check for resort fees. International visitors should check whether they need a visa or an ESTA before booking travel.

Because these dates are not confirmed yet, avoid non-refundable bookings until the organizer announces them. Our city travel guides cover hotels, transport and budgeting for the busiest show cities.
