LVE has served as the general contractor for CHAMPS Tradeshow group for over 25 years, managing the full-scale production of their events nationwide. The show requires seamless coordination of multiple vendors, exhibitors, and logistics while ensuring a high-quality experience for attendees and sponsors.

The Challenge
With tight timelines and complex operations, CHAMPS Tradeshow relies on LVE to deliver a flawlessly executed event from move-in through tear-down.

The team put it simply:

“We’re always looking for ways to better serve our customers and attendees to the shows to give them the best possible experience. Whether that’s our partners who have displays here and making their set up and tear down as seemsless as possible to reduce their stress levels, or the actual show attendees who have come to expect that CHAMPS is the top trade show in the industry to do business at. No matter what we are committed to giving the best experience possible and we rely on LVE to deliver that.”
