  • Broadcast advertising during the IBMA Awards show
  • On-site name presentation to heighten brand awareness during events
  • Premium exhibit space locations
  • Program advertising
  • Attendee registrations
  • Hotel accommodations
  • And More!

Be a part of "Showcase Row" by hosting an after hours event. 
Attendees convene at the after hours events to visit, do business and check out new talent!  Space within the Convention Center and Renaissance hotel is available and attendees have access to a printed schedule to let them know what is going on and where.

World of Bluegrass Policy requires that after hours attendees, participants, performers be a registered attendee.  See the after hours guidelines for complete information. 

If you would like to secure space as a host, complete the application and return to IBMA.  If you are looking for information on performing in after hours rooms,
