CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2029, held every three years at the Las Vegas Convention Center, is North America's largest construction trade show: around 139,000 contractors, dealers, fleet managers and equipment engineers walking a site that spills across the LVCC's halls and outdoor lots, including the Festival Grounds where full-size cranes, excavators and aggregate plants run live. Co-located with IFPE, the fluid-power show, it draws heavy-equipment buyers from every US state and dozens of countries for a once-every-three-years ordering and comparison cycle. That triennial rhythm is exactly why Las Vegas hotels behave differently for CONEXPO than for routine conventions: the show block and the Convention Center district fill a year out, and Strip rates climb steadily toward show week in March. This page pairs live bookable rates across the Strip, Convention Center district and Downtown with the transit, visa and show-floor intelligence veterans rely on.

How do you get to CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
From Harry Reid International (LAS)
- LAS is a 10-25 minute drive from most show hotels; the Convention Center district sits at the north end of that range
- Rideshare and taxi queues at the terminals lengthen sharply on the two arrival days before the show opens
- Taxis and rideshares to the Strip or LVCC area are short rides, but March convention traffic can stretch them considerably
- There is no direct rail link from the airport, so plan on road transfer regardless of budget
By road and regional arrival
- A large share of CONEXPO attendees drive in from across the Southwest via the I-15 and US-95 corridors
- Contractors hauling from Southern California should expect heavy I-15 traffic on the weekend before opening day
- On-site parking exists but fills early on peak days; hotels with parking within walking or shuttle distance simplify the week
- If LAS fares spike, some domestic attendees connect through Phoenix or Salt Lake City and drive, though flying direct remains the default
How do you get around during CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
Getting to the LVCC and Festival Grounds daily
- The Las Vegas Monorail serves the Convention Center directly, and the Sahara station is the closest stop to the Festival Grounds lot
- Booking within the official show hotel block includes shuttle service between the LVCC, Festival Grounds and non-walkable show hotels
- The underground LVCC Loop moves attendees free between West Hall and the Central/South Halls; rideshare drop-off for West Hall is on Elvis Presley Drive
- The Festival Grounds is the farthest corner of the show, so treat travel between it and the main halls as a real journey, not a stroll
Around Las Vegas
- Multi-day Monorail passes pay for themselves quickly if your hotel is on the east-Strip line
- Paradise Road and Las Vegas Blvd congest badly at show open and close; shift car journeys outside 08:00-09:30 and 16:30-18:00
- Scooters and wheelchairs can be rented at Blue Lot, Festival Grounds and West Hall, worth knowing on a show where 20,000 steps a day is normal
- Evening dining clusters on the Strip; during CONEXPO week reservations at the popular steakhouses go days in advance
Do you need a visa for CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
Visa-free / visa on arrival
- Travellers from the 42 Visa Waiver Program countries (the UK, most EU states, Japan, South Korea, Australia and others) attend US trade shows visa-free with an approved ESTA (around US$40, valid roughly two years)
- Canadians generally enter for business visits without a visa or ESTA
- VWP entry allows up to 90 days, comfortably covering the show plus dealer visits
eVisa / visa required
- Attendees from China, India, Brazil, most of Africa and the Middle East need a B-1 business visa requiring a consular interview
- Interview backlogs at some posts run months long, so begin the application the moment CONEXPO attendance is decided, ideally six months or more ahead
- Check the official conexpoconagg.com site for the organiser's international-visitor documentation to support your application
Documents to carry
- Show registration confirmation and evidence of business purpose, such as supplier meeting schedules
- Hotel confirmation and return ticket for CBP inspection on arrival
- A passport valid for your full stay; e-passport required for ESTA travellers
US visa and entry rules shift regularly, so confirm with the US embassy or official government sources before committing to travel.
First time at CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
- Dedicate a full day to the Festival Grounds: veterans treat it as its own show because getting back and forth to the main halls eats time
- Wear proper broken-in boots or sneakers; 20,000-plus steps a day across concrete and outdoor lots is standard
- Book inside the show hotel block or close to the Monorail: the free show shuttles only serve official hotels
- Pick up your badge on arrival day rather than the first morning, and download the show app for the floor plan before you land
- March in Vegas swings from warm afternoons to cold, windy mornings on the outdoor lots, so dress in layers
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- The last two days are markedly calmer, and equipment specialists on the stands have real time for spec-level conversations
- Deals get discussed at the Westgate and Renaissance bars adjacent to the LVCC after close: that is where exhibitor teams actually decompress
- Carry water and snacks; food queues at the outdoor lots are long and options thin compared with the halls
- Ride the Monorail to Sahara for the Festival Grounds instead of shuttling from the main campus, as it is usually the faster hop
CONEXPO-CON/AGG travel FAQs
When is CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2029?
CONEXPO-CON/AGG takes place 13 Mar to 17 Mar 2029 at Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, USA.
Where is CONEXPO-CON/AGG held?
CONEXPO-CON/AGG is held at Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, USA. The nearest airport is LAS.
Where should I stay for CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
Westgate and the Convention Center district win on pure proximity: some rooms are walkable to the halls. East-Strip resorts on the Monorail line are the next tier, and Downtown works for value if you accept a longer commute.
How much do hotels cost during CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
It is one of the priciest convention weeks on the Las Vegas calendar; rates run multiples of normal midweek levels and the closest properties carry the steepest premiums. The triennial cycle compresses three years of demand into one week.
How early should I book hotels for CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
Veterans book a full year ahead: the show block opens far in advance and the best-located rooms disappear long before show season. Holding a free-cancellation rate early is the low-risk play.
Which airport do I fly into for CONEXPO-CON/AGG?
Harry Reid International (LAS), a short drive from the LVCC. It is well connected domestically and internationally, but show-week fares rise steadily, so lock flights in when you book the hotel.
What is the difference between the LVCC halls and the Festival Grounds at CONEXPO?
The LVCC halls house components, technology and indoor equipment exhibits, while the Festival Grounds is the outdoor lot where the largest machines (cranes, earthmovers, aggregate processing plants) are displayed and demonstrated at full scale. They are far enough apart to plan as separate days.
