The best way to experience CEDIA Expo is as a CEDIA member.
Beyond free admission to the show and discounts on booth space, members unlock exclusive networking events, educational opportunities, and special perks from the moment Expo week begins until the final event wraps up.
On Tuesday evening, members are invited to the CEDIA Member Reception at 5:00 PM outside the Mile High Ballroom. Grab a drink, catch up with peers from around the world, and make new connections before heading into the CEDIA Town Hall. There, CEDIA’s new director of research, Ryan Bardach, will present key findings from the 2026 Professional Smart Home Market Analysis (USA) and explore what they mean for businesses moving forward.
Wednesday marks the official opening of the CEDIA Expo show floor, and members can start each day the right way. From Wednesday through Friday, enjoy complimentary coffee and bagels from 8:30-10:00 AM at the CEDIA Breakfast Club. Skip the long line at the coffee shop and fuel up for the busy days ahead.
Looking to sharpen your skills? Members receive discounts on CEDIA’s Education Conference and globally accredited certification exams, making CEDIA Expo the ideal place to invest in your professional growth.
Throughout the show, the CEDIA booth (#2532) serves as your home base. Stop by to connect with the CEDIA team, recharge in comfortable workspaces, enjoy complimentary refreshments, snag exclusive giveaways, and test your luck at the popular CEDIA claw machine.
When it’s time to unwind, join the Connection Hour on Wednesday at 4:00 PM at the CEDIA booth. This casual gathering is the perfect opportunity to continue conversations from the show floor, strengthen existing relationships, and introduce colleagues to the benefits of CEDIA membership.
To wrap up the week, registered attendees will be invited to a bar crawl through downtown Denver on Friday evening. Rumor has it CEDIA global president and CEO Daryl Friedman will be buying the first round of drinks for CEDIA members.
