This weekend, I’ll be flying back to Las Vegas 564 days after COVID-19 brought the CONEXPO-CON/AGG show to a sudden halt. [![Minexpo Mining Show](https://blog.martin-eng.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Minexpo%20Header%20copy-1.jpg?width=398&name=Minexpo%20Header%20copy-1.jpg)](https://www.minexpodirectory.com/directory/auxiliary-equipment-and-supplies/dust-fume-control-equipment-supplies/company/21547877/martin-engineering)Things will look a bit different this time around but just like any other day, we’ll put on our PPE *(including masks of course)* and get down to business. I’m certainly looking forward to seeing my mining colleagues gather together in person with eyes toward the latest innovations and technologies available and the immense potential that lies ahead for our industry. With that in mind, I’ve put together this pre-show guide to help you get the most out of three jam-packed days at the world’s largest mining show of its kind. Take it from someone who’s spent way more time in Vegas than is good for anyone *(see the proof in the pics below)*... ![Minexpo show in vegas](https://blog.martin-eng.com/hs-fs/hubfs/vegasphotos.png?width=2560&name=vegasphotos.png) *🎰 Yes, the Mike Tyson face tattoo was temporary although not as temporary as I had hoped. Imagine walking into the tradeshow the next morning with remnants of that tattoo on your face! Lesson learned - what happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas. It took me several days to completely lose the tattoo.) 🎰* Back to my advice...there’s a lot of ground to cover—swap those work boots for walking shoes. Get a lay of the land in advance and be sure to make good use of your time—it’ll go by quickly! **Be prepared:** Masks are currently required indoors in Nevada for both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. Just like we do in mines, [MINExpo is making safety a priority](https://www.minexpo.com/safety/). Masks will be available onsite. ## General Information If absolutely nothing else, be sure to [check out this handy attendee flyer](https://www.minexpo.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/MINE21-0009_FL_Attendee-Flyer_P7.pdf) that MINExpo provided. It’s two well-organized pages of general information covering badge pick-up, schedules, transportation options, and more. Save it to your phone or print one off to take with you. Make sure to have your **registration confirmation email** and **photo ID** ready when you pick up your badge, either at Caesars Palace or the Convention Center. **Heads up:** No children under the age of 17 will be allowed into the show this year. *Unfortunately, my 3-man wolfpack will be no longer as baby Carlos isn't allowed.* [![Martin Engineerng will be displaying new technology at the Minexpo show in Las Vegas](https://blog.martin-eng.com/hs-fs/hubfs/MartinEng4615MINExpo21.jpg?width=2560&name=MartinEng4615MINExpo21.jpg)](https://www.martin-eng.com/content/product/15528/positionindicator) ## Transportation Along with the Las Vegas Monorail, with stations behind hotels on the east side of the strip, **MINExpo has added a complimentary shuttle service** to this year’s show. The shuttle service will run a regular schedule for the duration of the show to and from hotels in the MINExpo hotel block. Routes and schedules will be posted on kiosks outside Hall C2 and the South Lobby. You can also [refer to the attendee flyer for details](https://www.minexpo.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/MINE21-0009_FL_Attendee-Flyer_P7.pdf). The [**Las Vegas Convention Center Loop**](https://www.boringcompany.com/lvcc)**—a project of Elon Musk’s Boring Company**—is also now operational and offering complimentary transportation service across the convention center campus during MINExpo. Hop in a Tesla at one of three stations and cruise through an underground tunnel beneath the convention center and cut a 45-minute hike down to a 2-minute subterranean luxury ride. **Pro tip:** Purchase discount Monorail tickets in advance [directly from the Las Vegas Monorail website!](https://tix.lvmonorail.com/MINE2021) ## Exhibitor Directory With approximately **1,300 exhibitors** spread out over **660,000 square feet** of floor space, there’s plenty of the industry’s latest groundbreaking innovations and technology to get an up-close look at.
