Lumenatti 2026

Lumenatti 2026 is more than a tradeshow, it’s a full-day lighting experience designed for designers, engineers, architects, and industry pros who want to connect, learn, and actually enjoy the process. Join us April 23, 2026 at The Chicory in New Orleans for a curated expo featuring today’s most innovative lighting manufacturers, immersive demos, CEU opportunities, incredible food and drinks, and a rooftop party atmosphere that feels equal parts professional and celebratory. Think high design meets laid-back New Orleans energy where you can earn credits, discover new products, and network without the usual conference stiffness.

Throughout the day, guests will move freely between the expo floor, classroom sessions, and rooftop lounge while enjoying music, cocktails, and nonstop hospitality. Expect:

• 20 premier lighting manufacturers showcasing new products & tech
• Complimentary buffet lunch (12–3 PM) + passed hors d’oeuvres all day
• Full open bar with beer, wine, and signature event cocktails
• Downtempo/afro-house DJ sets on the expo floor
• High-energy rooftop party with lounge seating & networking spaces
• Multiple CEU classroom sessions to earn annual credits
• Premium end-of-day raffle giveaways
• Free admission with Eventbrite RSVP (credentialed lanyard required for entry)

Come for the education, stay for the vibe — and leave inspired (and maybe with a raffle prize).

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
