Officials with World of Concrete have announced new dates for the 2021 conference, moving the event several months from January to June.

“We have a commitment to our exhibitors and attendees to provide a valuable and productive face-to-face experience at WOC each year,” said Jackie James, Group Director, World of Concrete.

“This is the first time in our 46-year history we have been faced with circumstances that have caused us to reschedule the event. We feel the new June dates will provide everyone with the necessary time to plan effectively and allows us to reimagine WOC for a different time of the year. Moving the event from winter to late spring this year will allow for additional outdoor activities everyone can enjoy in the great city of Las Vegas, including top-notch exhibits, new product demos and exciting spectator events.”

Officials went on to note, though, that the Las Vegas Convention Center has been awarded the Global Biorisk Advisory Council STAR facility accreditation, which is considered the standard for facility safety, including in regard to COVID-19.

“We look forward to continuing our role in driving the industry forward, connecting communities and supporting businesses,” officials said. “We look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas in June 2021.”

WOC will continue to post updates on its website as they become available.
