The NAHB and the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) have updated the health and safety protocols for the upcoming Design & Construction Week, which features NAHB’s International Builders’ Show and NKBA’s Kitchen & Bath Industry Show.
The trade shows will be held at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) in Orlando, Florida, Feb. 8 to 10. Individuals that attend or exhibit at either show should anticipate providing proof of a negative COVID-19 test result within five days of attending the show or proof of the full COVID-19 vaccination prior to entry.
In addition, all registered attendees and exhibitors will be required to wear a face mask, regardless of vaccination status, when riding on an official show hotel shuttle and when indoors at the OCCC and at other show-related venues.
“The safety and well-being of our attendees, partners, exhibitors, site workers, and staff remains our top priority. As we get closer to returning to an in-person show in Orlando, we continue to update our health and safety policies for the upcoming Design & Construction Week based upon current recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the state of Florida, and local Orlando health authorities,” says the joint release from the NAHB and NKBA. “We will continue to monitor their recommendations and will update relevant information as needed. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to Orlando for an incredible show experience.”
