We added a new set of questions to the Mid-Year State of the Industry Survey. These questions addressed magazine subscription and show attendance.

We are in show season. Here is a chance to see who attends which shows.

We have included data on competing shows. Please consider that these numbers may be skewed because while we did partner with METALCON and the Metal Construction Association to gather data, we also included our own list, so the data may be biased toward our audience.

The top three shows (in order) for different categories of people who we polled are as follows:

Post Frame

  1. Frame Building Expo
    Tied for 2&3. METALCON and Post Frame Builder Show

Metal Buildings

  1. METALCON
  2. Construction Rollforming Show
  3. Frame Building Expo
    Agricultural
  4. Frame Building Expo
  5. METALCON
  6. Post Frame Builder Show
