IECSC Las Vegas Brings Spa Professionals Together

Questex’s International Esthetics, Cosmetics and Spa Conference (IECSC) Las Vegas welcomed more than 15,000 spa, wellness, and beauty professionals to the Las Vegas Convention Center from June 20-21, 2021. As one of the first live events at the convention center since the pandemic began, attendance reached a record high as professionals convened to experience leading education and purchase products from more than 300 exhibitors, further solidifying the show’s place as the leading spa and beauty tradeshow for professionals to learn more about the latest trends in the industry. Spa and wellness professionals from around the world came to IECSC Las Vegas for the latest in facial treatments, skincare, retail products, cosmetics, equipment/furniture, nutrition and health products, microdermabrasion equipment, permanent makeup, massage products, aromatherapy, spa clothing, hair removal, laser equipment, spa décor, medical spa equipment, and more. IECSC Las Vegas co-located with the International Beauty Show (IBS) Las Vegas, giving attendees free access to the IBS show floor where they could meet and shop from additional beauty exhibitors. “We are so appreciative of the support from our exhibitors and attendees in the spa & beauty community. The timing was perfect to be together – in person – for the industry’s largest event of the year, and get back to business,” says Liz Hitchcock, IECSC and IBS Event Director.

In addition to the exhibit hall, IECSC Las Vegas offered a conference program with classes taught by wellness industry icons. Speakers presented content to help attendees grow in their careers, including Esthetics, Business Management, Wellness Elements, Social Media & Marketing, Business Building, Makeup, Medical Spa, and the Advanced Business Seminar. Plus, more than 60 Product Focused Classes were included with exhibit hall admission.

What’s more, Questex announced the acquisition of the Spa Industry Association, a for-profit business organization focused on the spa and the medical spa industries, at IECSC Las Vegas. Allan Share, president of the Spa Industry Association, joins Questex to help amplify the Spa Industry Association’s voice while solidifying its leadership position in the wellness market and supporting the spa community’s return to business in 2021. “We are very focused on the wellness category and the Spa Industry Association strengthens our commitment to this space,” says Jill Birkett, Market Leader for Wellness at Questex. “We’re excited to welcome Allan to Questex to further extend the Spa Industry Association’s value as an information resource for the Spa industry by leveraging our resources.”
