International Carwash Association, in partnership with Western Carwash Association, launched Splash! earlier this year as part of its new strategic plan.
That’s boring. You know why we really started Splash!? Because we wanted to find more reasons to bring our car wash community together. Let’s face it, we’re a pretty fun group.
We also wanted to do something different. Different even from our own (very successful) The Car Wash Show and Car Wash Show Europe. We all spend a lot of time at trade shows. Why would we want to make one just like the others?
There will be sponsor companies on hand at kiosks, but this event is engineered to be about the people, the experiences, and the opportunity to share knowledge.
How’s it different you ask?
One look at the show floor and you’ll realize very quickly you’re not at a typical car wash industry show. We’ve spent time designing a show floor with a unique layout engineered to create interactive experiences and provide plenty of opportunities to meet up with friends both old and new.
We’re giving away tons of great prizes, including equipment from the vendor community (anyone need a free dryer?) as well as 4K TVs, jewelry, gift cards, Fitbits, Drones and more. And there will be plenty of food and drink to keep everyone satiated.
You sent in your pressing issues, we’re going to deliver potential solutions. More than 30 different 15-minute Wash Talks will take place throughout the event, all on stages in one big room.
The event is right around the corner; Oct. 25-26. But the beauty of it is that it’s a 24-hour event. Come in to Las Vegas early on Oct. 25, come see us at The Mirage and stay the night, and fly out late on Oct. 26.
Whether it’s over coffee or a beer, at sponsor demonstrations or interactive displays, during happy hour or hands-on workshops, you’ll have no trouble getting the product info, pro tips and industry news you need — all in one big easy-to-work room full of people who can help you make your business better.
I’m excited to see everyone in Las Vegas!
