About Be+Well New York (formerly IBS and IECSC New York)
Be+Well New York, the Beauty and Wellness Show that brings together the International Beauty Show (IBS) and the International Esthetics, Cosmetics and Spa Conference (IECSC), runs from Sunday 7 to Tuesday 9 March 2027 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center on 11th Avenue.
Organised by Questex, the publisher of American Salon and American Spa, it is a show for professionals: hairstylists, colourists, barbers, salon and spa owners, nail and lash technicians, estheticians, medical spa teams and wellness professionals, plus students heading into the industry.
The organiser counts more than 30,000 beauty and wellness professionals and over 450 exhibiting brands, laid out in neighbourhoods for hair and salon, spa and wellness, nails, cosmetics, brows and lashes, business services, technology and retail. Alongside the expo there are more than 50 paid conference sessions, over 180 free classes and product focused education, a stage programme and a nail and makeup competition.
The Javits sits on Manhattan's West Side, a short walk from the 7 train at Hudson Yards, so hotels in Hudson Yards, Hell's Kitchen, Times Square and Chelsea all work. This page shows live New York hotel rates for the show dates, which you can change. Tickets are sold by the organiser, separately from your hotel, and Event Escapes is independent of Questex.
