Gearing Up : S.L.A.T.E. August 2010

Seems like winter is barely finished and already it’s only 6 weeks until we start setting up S.L.A.T.E. at MAGIC at Mandalay Bay Convention Center! Lots of new features to get excited about along with a stellar roster of exhibiting brands and attendees.

THE ESSENTIALS:

S.L.A.T.E. will be at Mandalay Bay in the same area as last season, but with a newly improved and expanded layout for easier navigation and new elements.  The show opens Tuesday, August 17 and runs through Thursday, August 19.

THE EXCITING:

This August, S.L.A.T.E. will be joined at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center not only by Street and Project, but also by POOL Tradeshow! For the first time the hottest shows will share one campus destination – no more shuttle buses or long hikes.

S.L.A.T.E. is also welcoming new exhibitors including:

The Hundreds, Hype Means Nothing, Sneaktip, Tokidoki, Shwood Eyewear, Society Original Products, and dozens more.  S.L.A.T.E. always aims to represent the best in iconic and up-and-coming brands in the worlds of progressive surf, skate, streetwear and design, and these new arrivals are fantastic additions to the show floor this season!
