Exhibit Hall

IAPD and IPRA invite you to support the park and recreation industry by exhibiting at the 2023 Soaring to New Heights Conference, January 26-27, 2023, at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. Come join us by attending the state’s largest park and recreation conference featuring over 325 exhibitors with more than 3,800 park and recreation elected officials, commissioners, board members and professionals expected to attend. With meeting attendance that rivals the National Recreation and Park Association Congress, you’ll receive unprecedented exposure to park and recreation professionals, most of whom make the buying decisions likely to impact your company’s bottom line. You don’t want to miss this opportunity. Exhibitor Prospectus coming soon!
