Mardi Gras Style Comes to the Industry Showcase

The Joint Industry Showcase is bringing a little New Orleans energy to the 2026 Marketing & Distribution Convention.

Taking place Thursday, October 29, the Joint Industry Showcase gives attendees a dedicated opportunity to meet exhibitors, discover products and innovations, and connect with companies and people who can help move their businesses forward.

And this year, we’re adding a little Mardi Gras flair to the experience.

Explore. Connect. Win.

Attendees will have the opportunity to collect five Mardi Gras beads from participating exhibitors. Once you’ve collected your beads, redeem them for a raffle ticket for a chance to win prizes.

It’s a fun reason to make your way around the Showcase and a great way to discover something new along the way.

Exhibitors are also encouraged to bring the spirit of New Orleans to their booths with creative decorations, music, color and Mardi Gras flair.

Make Time for the Companies That Matter to You

The Joint Industry Showcase isn’t just about walking the aisles. It’s about making connections.

Attendees can schedule meetings with exhibitors ahead of time, making it easier to connect with the companies, products and services most important to their business.

Whether you’re looking for a new supplier, exploring technology, searching for solutions or simply want to see what’s new, the Showcase gives you a chance to have those conversations face-to-face.

Booth Space Is Still Available

Want to put your company in front of FEMA members? Booth spaces are still available for the Industry Showcase. It’s a great opportunity to showcase your products and services, meet face-to-face with manufacturers, suppliers and distributors, and build valuable industry connections.

Reserve your booth today and bring your best Mardi Gras spirit to New Orleans!
