The upcoming event—the company’s sole expo in the American Southwest—will now take place at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, on October 21–23 (Wednesday–Friday), a venue and set of dates organizers say will offer even greater opportunities for custom apparel decorators and their businesses.

“This move puts your brand center stage with even more high-intent buyers than ever before,” Impressions Expo leadership says. “By joining forces with the Dallas Apparel & Accessories Market during one of the city’s busiest buying weeks, you’ll connect with thousands of motivated buyers, who are active, ready to shop, and looking to place orders.”

Among the advantages of the new location and time slot are the fact decorated apparel professions can now:

Be part of a high-impact buying week: Two days of overlap (October 21–23) with the Dallas Apparel & Accessories Market, which puts your brand in front of buyers already in-market and ready to place orders

Reach new, qualified buyers: Connect with apparel and boutique buyers who don’t typically attend Impressions—expanding your reach without spending any extra marketing dollars.

Benefit from stronger traffic and momentum: Increased industry activity creates a busier, more energized environment—driving more booth visits, conversations, and sales opportunities

Experience more efficient travel, better ROI: Moving to a Wednesday–Friday schedule removes expensive weekend travel and time away from home, keeping your focus completely on selling and improving your ROI.
