ICSC Las Vegas 2027 returns to the Las Vegas Convention Center in May; the 2026 edition ran from 18 to 20 May and gathered more than 25,000 decision-makers. It is the biggest annual deal-making event for commercial real estate, retail property and mixed-use development.

Landlords, developers, retailers, restaurant chains, brokers and investors meet to sign leases and plan expansion. Booths are essentially meeting rooms. This guide covers costs, the audience and how proptech and CRE service providers can get on the right calendars.

What is ICSC Las Vegas?

ICSC Las Vegas is where landlords, developers, retailers, restaurant chains, brokers and investors meet to do leasing and investment deals. Booths are basically meeting spaces; the event is almost entirely about deal-making.

In 2026 ICSC added ICSC+PROPTECH, a co-located program focused on property technology.

The sales opportunity at ICSC Las Vegas

ICSC is unusual among trade shows because almost everyone is there to do deals. Retailers’ real estate teams meet landlords, brokers meet both, and investors look for opportunities. That makes it very efficient for anyone who serves these groups.

For proptech, data and service vendors, the challenge is that attendees book their schedules weeks ahead, mostly with deal partners. A list of registered companies split into landlords, retailers, brokers and investors lets you approach each group with a relevant reason to meet.

Should you go to ICSC Las Vegas?

Go if your buyers work in commercial real estate and you can identify the specific companies you want to meet. The budget holders are there; the work is in finding them among a large crowd.

Think twice if you can’t staff a booth or meeting schedule properly. Without a target list, ICSC Las Vegas can turn into a lot of pleasant conversations and very little pipeline.

Event app and digital platform

ICSC provides web-based Attendee Search and Exhibitor Search tools for networking and meeting planning.

If you plan to prospect through the event app, expect friction: limited search filters, caps on messages and connection requests, and no way to get the data into your CRM. It helps on the day, but it is not a target list.

Huge concentration of CRE decision-makers Meetings booked far in advance

How to prospect at ICSC Las Vegas

When What to do
2 months out Decide who you want to meet: target roles, industries, company size. Then get the list of who is actually registered.
1 month out Run a short outreach sequence (three to four touches) that leads with the event and a clear meeting ask.
Final week Send reminders, share your booth number or meeting spot, and prepare one-page briefs on your top accounts.
After the event Send personalised follow-ups within 72 hours and tag every lead with the event name in your CRM.

Retailer members attend ICSC for free, so retail real estate teams turn up in force. If they are your buyers, start outreach in March, before their calendars fill with landlord meetings.

The hard part of this plan is step one: the list. That’s exactly what I do. Get your ICSC Las Vegas attendee list and spend your time on the conversations instead.
