This news is more for vendors, but also a reminder for cycling fans to get the Philly Bike Expo on your calendar for 2019. The 2018 edition was their largest show yet, and had a number of big name vendors in attendance. With the demise of Interbike, it is sure to be THE late season show to attend. As always, Bike World News will be there to bring you all of the news.
Here are some of the articles from this year’s show:

2019 Philly Bike Expo- Early Bird Exhibitor Registration Is Open
Discounted early-bird registration is now open for the 2019 Philly Bike Expo, and to-date exhibitor registration is sprinting past 2018 numbers. Coming on the heels of 2018’s first-ever sold-out show, the PBE continues to gain momentum as both a consumer event and a significant late-season industry gathering.
Returning to the naturally-lit venue of the Pennsylvania Convention Center in November, the PBE provides a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Consumers, media and industry attendees can view mid-season launches from larger exhibitors alongside handbuilt bicycles and accessories from numerous smaller brands.
Early bird pricing is valid through April 19- at which point the baseline rate for a 10×10 space will increase from $995 to $1250. Registration information can be found here: https://phillybikeexpo.com/exhibit/
