About CinemaCon

Having discussed the city location of CinemaCon with its exhibitor and distributor partners, it was agreed that Las Vegas was best suited to host the new convention. Of the various properties considered, Caesars Palace stood out for several reasons: their convenient location on the “Four Corners” of Las Vegas; its beautiful and new Conference Center located away from the smoke and madding crowd of the casino; the availability of The Colosseum, one of the premiere, state-of-the-art performance venues in Las Vegas, complete with a seating capacity of 4,200 and which will be able to accommodate the entire CinemaCon delegation under one roof at the same time; the diversity and number of on-site property amenities and restaurants and the quality and reputation of the entire staff at Caesars Palace.
With so many of the summer and fall films special effects driven, it was decided to hold CinemaCon in the Spring so as to capitalize on the greater availability of footage. This decision was made in concert with the Hollywood Studios. Additionally, when selecting dates, CinemaCon was mindful of the Spring’s religious holiday periods.
For the next five-year period, CinemaCon will be held as follows:
  • 2026 – 13 – 16 April
  • 2027 – 12 – 15 April
  • 2028 – 24 – 27 April
  • 2029 – 23 – 26 April
  • 2030 – 8 – 11 April
Everyone in the cinema industry will be attending CinemaCon! International and domestic cinema representatives from single-screen to 2,000+ screen companies; distribution, marketing, and publicity representatives from international motion picture studios; worldwide equipment and concession vendors, and, representatives from all ancillary markets and facets of the motion picture industry from media to the filmmaking community.
