What's New
The NAHB International Builders' Show® (IBS) is where the residential construction industry comes to learn, connect and discover what's new and what's next.
The 2027 Builders' Show brings a lineup of firsts, fresh formats and new experiences that even longtime attendees haven't experienced before. From hands-on tech education to a reimagined show floor, here's a glimpse at what's new and why this year's show is worth a spot on your calendar.
AI & Tech Studio
The AI & Tech Studio debuted at IBS 2026 and now it’s heading west for the first time as IBS returns to its permanent home, Las Vegas.
These sessions dive into real-world applications you can put to work immediately, covering everything from AI for business operations, design, sales and project management to essential tools like CRMs, estimating software, BIM and 3D modeling, virtual tours and more.
What sets the AI & Tech Studio apart is its hands-on format, built around discovering, doing, comparing and testing, with live demos, builder-led case studies and interactive presentations that show technology in action and proven strategies to build a smarter tech stack, streamline operations and elevate your business.

Vegas Loop: New Stops Added
The Vegas Loop at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) quickly transports passengers throughout the 200-acre LVCC campus in a fun and convenient way, free of charge. The LVCC Loop reduces a 25-minute walk to a less than two-minute ride.
The Vegas Loop has added key hotel and airport extensions, expanding operational destination stops to include Westgate, Encore at Wynn Resorts, Fontainebleau and initial surface-street/hybrid service connections to Harry Reid International Airport.
Trips within the LVCC are free. Travel to destinations outside the campus requires a valid ticket. To view all available stations, see ticket pricing, and purchase tickets, visit lvloop.com/tickets.
