If building a more resilient business and expanding your professional network is on your list of New Year’s resolutions, then we have fantastic news for you. The CD/NLA Show is heading to the Paris Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas this February 23-26, and it’s shaping up to be our biggest, most expansive show to date! A special thank you to all our sponsors including Title Sponsor Volvo.
In addition to a nearly sold-out exhibit floor with all the industry’s top vendors, suppliers, and technology companies, the CD/NLA Education Committee (co-chaired by Jason Sharenow of Broadway Elite Worldwide and Karl Guenther of Statement Limousine) is putting the final touches on close to a dozen valuable and thought-provoking sessions and roundtables. Grab some breakfast with your fellow attendees on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday—included with your show pass—then explore topics like pricing for profitability, working with affiliates, and the always hot issue of insurance. Our educational lineup will appeal to operators large and small, as well as our international contingency. Plus, you’ll want to stay on Wednesday for bonus workshop Fuel Your Business Growth and Take Command, delivered by Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) Professional Implementers, which we guarantee will be packed with tons of takeaway.
2025 Keynote Speaker Molly Fletcher You’ll also want to mark your schedule to our attend our Keynote (sponsored by Driver Schedule) with the incredible Molly Fletcher, entitled Unleash Your Potential. You might not know her name, but you’ll definitely know her work as the female Jerry Maguire who has negotiated contracts for the likes of Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz, PGA TOUR golfer Matt Kuchar, broadcaster Erin Andrews, and basketball championship coaches Tom Izzo and Doc Rivers. Now a top motivational speaker and host of the Game Changers With Molly Fletcher podcast—where she shares interesting and moving conversations with heavyweights across the spectrum, from business to Hollywood—you too will be inspired by her message to Up Your Game.
Education is the heart of the show, but we know networking is equally as important. If this is your first CD/NLA show, you’ll want to attend our First-Timers’ Event, which will help you make new connections and get the best ROI from your Vegas trip. Put those networking skills to the test with our Affiliate Central Global Partner Forum, sponsored by Volvo, where more than 100 operators are expected to host networking tables. With such a high number of global registrations, our popular International Meet & Greet, sponsored by Global Alliance Worldwide Chauffeured Services, and Van Delden Limousine, is also making a return, so be sure to mark your schedule. We’re also happy to again host our CD Advertiser Meet & Greet, sponsored by GNet. The inaugural event last year in Vegas was a rousing success, and we’ve been tweaking and refining it to make it even better in 2025.
As we’ve already mentioned, our exhibit hall is close to sold out—a possible record time before our event! Numerous OEMs have stepped up their commitment to the industry and are offering products at every point price and level of luxury. Manufacturers like Volvo, BMW, Cadillac, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Lucid, and Nissan/Infiniti will all be there with their latest vehicles to service this industry. Additionally, most of the major motorcoach manufacturers will be present along with a wide array of choices for Sprinters, Transits, and cutaway buses all under one roof. You can also expect to see virtually every industry-related product, service, or technology that could make an impact on your efficiency, profitability, and safety. It’s true buying power and side-by-side shopping.
But a CD/NLA Show wouldn’t be complete without some incredible nightlife activities. On Sunday night, you can check out our aforementioned exhibit hall with our Show Floor Opening Night Party, sponsored by Titus Leasing. Mingle with our amazing vendors and manufacturers while previewing the stellar deals and steals they have to offer. Then on Tuesday—not Monday—we’re thrilled to host our Bon Voyage Party extravaganza, which will feature plenty of drinks, apps, and incredible dueling pianos for a fun and unforgettable evening. Monday night is up to you, so you’ll truly appreciate the location of the Paris Hotel on the famous Las Vegas Strip. Plus, unlike other Vegas properties, our events are all held close to the hotel’s elevators—so it’s less wear and tear on your tired feet.
“It was my first time at the CD/NLA Show and it was a great experience! The show floor was impressive and, overall, the whole experience was motivating and educational,” says Suzy Clifton of Altamont Limo.
