DAYTONA BEACH, FL — Spring Break Nationals Car Audio Expo and Soundoff said it will open next year’s annual event with a one-day consumer expo on Saturday, March 21, 2015.
Suppliers who are displaying in the annual trade expo will be able to speak directly to consumers in 15-30 minute mini seminars in an area of the Ocean Center. A limited number of time slots for presentations will be offered. The louder SPL demonstrations and Soundoff Competitions will be held in their own exhibit hall along with a Custom Car Show, Main Stage with Emcee and the traditional sideshows.
Event founder Paul Papadeas said, “Over the years, spectator attendance peaked Saturdays, so why not channel that exposure to Saturday and dedicate Sunday to the Trade? ”
Starting on Sunday is the in.car.EXPO, in which the Ocean Center becomes the East Coast’s Mobile Electronics Trade Show.
IASCA will also hold its first “IQC Build-Off”. Dealers may enter installations to be judged on the show floor for cash prizes. Installations will be evaluated by the IASCA IQC (installation quality challenge) rules.
Also next year, space will be expanded for audiophile listening rooms.
At the event, suppliers will also hold product training sessions and seminars.
Papadeas said of the shift to a consumer expo day, “Last year’s exit survey supported this movement to trade; now, it’s Go Time. This is an event that east coasters can drive to and find affordable accommodations. We want to engage all mobile electronics dealers, reps and distributors east of the Mississippi to participate…”
