The IBS + IECSC Merger: What’s New for 2026

2026 marks a pivotal industry moment: the two largest U.S. beauty/spa trade shows — IBS (International Beauty Show) and IECSC (International Esthetics, Cosmetics & Spa Conference) — have officially unified as Be+Well | Beauty and Wellness Show. For attendees, this means one badge, one venue, one consolidated week — replacing what historically required two separate trips.

If you previously attended only IECSC for spa and esthetics focus, you’ll now find hair, barbering, and nail content woven into your week. If you came for IBS hair education, the spa floor and wellness programming are now part of your access. Plan your hotel stay knowing you’ll likely spend more daily floor hours than in previous years — exhaustion management matters more than ever.

Hotels Within Walking Distance of the LVCC

For beauty pros transporting product samples, demo kits, or competition tools, walking-distance hotels eliminate transit friction during the three-day expo. With June Las Vegas afternoon temps averaging 95–105°F, minimizing outdoor walks at peak hours is also a self-care strategy.

Westgate Las Vegas Resort — Across from LVCC

The Westgate sits directly across Paradise Road from LVCC’s main entrance, with a covered walkway. Door-to-door in 2 minutes — ideal for exhibitors, competition participants hauling kits, and anyone scheduling back-to-back appointments with brand reps. Las Vegas Monorail station on property for evening Strip access.

Renaissance Las Vegas Hotel — Quiet business focus, no casino

4-star non-gaming property four blocks from LVCC. Quieter lobby and proper desks make it ideal for spa owners reviewing inventory orders between expo days or estheticians studying continuing education content in the evenings. On-site UPS Store for shipping product samples home.

Courtyard, SpringHill Suites & Residence Inn LVCC

Three Marriott properties within a 5–10 minute walk of LVCC. Courtyard has no resort fees and an outdoor pool. SpringHill Suites offers separate living areas and a rooftop pool — great for team travel. Residence Inn provides full kitchens, ideal for wellness pros wanting to maintain their nutrition routines mid-trip without restaurant dependence.

Mid-Strip Hotels with Monorail Access to LVCC

The Las Vegas Monorail connects key Strip hotels directly to the LVCC station — a single 5-to-15-minute ride avoids surge pricing during Be+Well peak hours. If you want Strip dining and nightlife in the evening but a quick morning commute, prioritize Monorail-served properties.

• Wynn / Encore Las Vegas: Five-star luxury, world-class spa and dining for client/brand entertainment, Monorail leg to LVCC in 4 minutes. Ideal for spa owners hosting partner meetings or wellness brand executives.
• The Venetian / The Palazzo: All-suite property with separate living areas — perfect for nail/lash artists traveling with competition kits or estheticians with extensive product samples. Sands Expo connects directly to the Venetian for combo trade-show trips.
• Caesars Palace: Classic Strip experience, vast restaurant selection (Hell’s Kitchen, Nobu, Bobby Flay’s) for client/brand dinners. Monorail station nearby at Harrah’s.
• Harrah’s Las Vegas: Monorail station on property. Mid-range pricing, central Strip location — solid choice for solo practitioners traveling on a budget.
• The LINQ Hotel: Monorail-adjacent, walking distance to the High Roller, lively atmosphere — popular with younger beauty pros wanting nightlife after expo hours.
• Vdara Hotel & Spa: All-suite, non-gaming, non-smoking. The wellness-focused atmosphere fits Be+Well attendees seeking calm restorative evenings between intense expo days.

Stations Casinos Off-Strip — Smart Budget Picks

Locally-owned Stations Casinos properties price 30–40% below comparable Strip resorts during Be+Well week. Returning attendees who don’t need Strip nightlife regularly choose Stations for the value-to-quality ratio.

• Palace Station: About 4 miles from LVCC — closest Stations property. Recently renovated, predictable rates even during conference weeks. Easy 10-minute rideshare.
• Red Rock Resort: 12 miles west, full-service resort with spa, multiple pools, hiking access to Red Rock Canyon — ideal for wellness pros wanting nature recovery between sessions.
• Boulder Station: East-side option about 7 miles from LVCC, reliable for returning attendees who value familiarity.

Suites & Vacation Rentals for Spa & Salon Teams

If you’re attending Be+Well as part of a spa, salon, or med-spa team — three or more colleagues traveling together — a vacation rental often costs less per person than separate hotel rooms while offering critical workspace advantages: a full kitchen for healthy meals, separate living area for team debriefs after expo days, storage space for product samples and competition kits, and laundry on-site for a 3-to-4 day stay.

Vrbo lists hundreds of properties within 2–3 miles of the LVCC, including downtown high-rise condos and full houses in the Paradise / Spring Valley area. For salon teams bringing demo equipment (mannequins, styling chairs, product cases), the extra storage room is invaluable. Book at least 60 days ahead for the best Be+Well-week availability.

Pro Tips: Beauty & Wellness Pro Logistics for Be+Well Week

• Hydration is non-negotiable. June Las Vegas afternoons reach 95–105°F. Carry a refillable water bottle on the expo floor — Be+Well stations are available, but lines build during peak hours. Dehydration accelerates fatigue and undermines skin condition (relevant when you’re a beauty professional).
• Sample storage. If you’re collecting product samples from 400+ exhibitors, request a room with a small refrigerator at check-in. Many spa samples are temperature-sensitive (peptides, ampoules, retinol formulations). Marriott LVCC properties typically include mini-fridges as standard.
• Competition kits and tools. If you’re competing in Nail, Makeup, or Barber competitions, the LVCC offers some onsite storage but it’s limited. A hotel room within walking distance lets you stage your full kit overnight and replenish supplies between heats.
• Continuing education credits. Be+Well offers state-board-approved CE for many sessions. Hotels with proper desks and quiet evenings (Renaissance, Vdara, Residence Inn) make studying for licensure exam prep practical between expo days.
• Comfortable footwear strategy. Expect 6-8 miles of walking per expo day. Pack two pairs of professional shoes to rotate — your feet will recover better, and you’ll present better at brand booth meetings.
• Networking receptions. Most major brand receptions (Dermalogica, HydraFacial, Repechage, Eminence Organic) happen mid-Strip or at Westgate. Cluster your hotel near the receptions you most want to attend.
• Book 45–60 days ahead. Be+Well rates climb steadily from April onward. Last-minute rooms exist but at 30%+ premium. Walking-distance LVCC hotels sell out fastest.

Getting from Your Hotel to the LVCC

The Las Vegas Convention Center sits at 3150 Paradise Road, just east of the Las Vegas Strip. Beauty pros have more transportation options here than at most U.S. convention centers — pick the right one for your daily schedule and gear load.

• Vegas Loop (Tesla underground tunnels): Three LVCC stations connect the West, Central, and South Halls in under 2 minutes. Free for attendees during conventions. Essential when you’re navigating multiple show floor neighborhoods (Hair / Skin / Spa / Wellness).
• Las Vegas Monorail: Direct station at LVCC, with stops at Westgate, SAHARA, Harrah’s, Flamingo/Caesars, MGM Grand. Single rides and day passes available; check current fares. Faster than rideshare during Be+Well peak hours.
• Walking: Hotels under 0.5 miles (Westgate, Renaissance, Courtyard, SpringHill, Residence Inn) are walkable in 5–12 minutes. Early morning walks are most comfortable in June heat.
• Rideshare (Uber / Lyft): Short rides from mid-Strip or Downtown; fares vary with surge. Expect surge pricing 8:30–10:30 AM and 4:30–5:30 PM during expo days.
• Self-drive: LVCC offers attendee parking, rates vary by hall. Useful if you’re combining Be+Well with off-Strip client visits or spa equipment vendor showrooms.
• Car rental: Worth considering for spa teams hauling equipment or anyone extending the trip to explore nearby Red Rock Canyon, Valley of Fire, or Mt. Charleston.
