FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
T.H.E. Show Vegas Announces Postponement
While Securing a New Venue
Las Vegas, NV, December 22, 2025 — T.H.E. Show, America’s longest running HiFi Audio trade show announces that their 30th Anniversary homecoming Las Vegas show is being postponed, due to unexpected developments from the originally contracted venue. Currently, the organization is securing a new venue and dates that meets the high standards they set forth, that have come to be expected by exhibitors, attendees, and members of the press.
“T.H.E. Show takes our responsibility to our exhibitors and partners incredibly seriously,” said Emiko E. Carlin, President of T.H.E. Show and CEO of the parent company T.H.E. Enterprises. “While this is extremely disappointing for us to learn of the venue’s choice to not honor our relationship, we cannot and will not put our exhibitors and attendees in harm's way.”
Immediately upon receiving the news from the hotel, T.H.E. Show began discussions with alternative venues, including Alexis Park and other qualified properties. The team is currently reviewing bids, proposals, and contracts in order to select a venue that will not only accommodate the show’s rapid growth, but exceed expectations.
Carlin says the team has already reached out directly to exhibitors and is grateful for the overwhelming support and understanding shown by the audio community. T.H.E. Show is fully committed to moving forward with a venue that reflects the caliber of the event.

About T.H.E. Show:
Welcome to T.H.E. Show: Total HiFi Experience™
T.H.E. Show — Total HiFi Experience™ — is more than a high-end audio event.
It's a fully immersive universe where sound, music, film, art, technology, and culture intersect.
A place where passion meets purpose — and where the line between creator and listener, artist and audience begins to blur.
Across nearly three decades, T.H.E. Show has grown into the premier destination for audiophiles, music lovers, exhibitors, innovators, filmmakers, media, and curious newcomers to come together and experience excellence — not just in sound, but in storytelling, craftsmanship, and creative expression.
But what truly sets us apart?
At the heart of T.H.E. Show is a symbiotic relationship — between those who create the music, art, and films we love, and those who seek to experience them at their highest level.
Our growing platforms — T.H.E. Music Group and T.H.E. Film Festival — exist to nurture and support creators at every stage, bringing their work to life on the very systems that elevate their art to new heights. This is more than a show — it’s an entire ecosystem of creation, curation, and connection.
Whether you're:
🎧 An attendee searching for sonic bliss and unforgettable moments
📦 An exhibitor looking to reach passionate, engaged audiences
🎤 A journalist or content creator uncovering the next wave in sound and culture
🎶 A music or film fan exploring new voices and visionary storytelling
T.H.E. Show is your destination.
With events in SoCal, Austin, New York, Las Vegas, plus the launch of T.H.E. TV, we’re not just redefining the hi-fi experience — we’re expanding it.
This is Total HiFi Experience™.
This is T.H.E. Show — where creation meets curation, and everyone, and every sense is invited.
