Coverings, North America's largest international ceramic tile and natural stone trade event, successfully concluded its 2025 show with record-breaking attendance and industry engagement. Nearly 25,000 industry professionals gathered at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, from April 29 to May 2, marking significant year-over-year growth in qualified attendance and networking activities.

The four-day event featured 1,000 exhibitors from 40 countries across 440,000 net square feet of exhibit space, spanning the convention center's North and South Halls. The international showcase highlighted advanced products in tile, stone, tools, technology, and machinery, with 75% of attendees holding specification or purchasing authority for materials.

Comprehensive Educational Programming

Coverings 2025 delivered robust educational content through more than 150 speakers across 24 curated conference sessions. The programming was organized under three core tracks: Installation & Fabrication, Materials & Trends, and Workforce & Profits. Many sessions reached full capacity, demonstrating strong industry demand for technical expertise and business intelligence.

Enhanced Attendee Experience

New features included the VIP Specifier Program, providing 16 leading U.S. architects, designers, and facility managers with exclusive networking opportunities and customized content. The I.C.E. House Showhome Experience offered an immersive walk-through showcase of future home design trends, while eight guided tours and self-guided audio tours in English and Spanish provided specialized access to innovations.

Industry Momentum and Future Outlook

"Coverings 2025 demonstrated how the global tile and stone industry continues to thrive through shared innovation, craftsmanship and collaboration," said Jamie Rich, Coverings' show director. The event's success reinforces Coverings' position as the leading business hub for the international tile and stone community.

Coverings 2026 is scheduled for March 30-April 2 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
