June 17th is THE day to celebrate licensing!

On the opening night of Licensing Expo, LIMA will host its annual Licensing Excellence Awards – featuring an introductory performance by the world famous Jabbawockeez and a fast-paced ceremony led by noted comedian Andy Pitz!

This year’s Awards will honor the best of the industry in 20 different categories.   One hundred eighteen nominees were selected from a record-breaking 360 entries from 16 countries – the largest roster of nations ever represented in the program.

Join us at 6:00pm in the Islander Ballroom at Mandalay Bay as we reveal the winners and toast our newest Hall of Fame members Debra Joester and Joanne Loria.

Admission is free to Expo exhibitors and attendees.

Following the Awards, it’s time to party on the beach at Mandalay Bay.  LIMA Members save on ticket prices – visit the Licensing Expo website to order yours before they sell out!
