The International Roofing Expo is the big general roofing trade show in North America, produced by Informa Markets and co-located with the National Roofing Contractors Association’s annual convention. It covers every roofing system, residential and commercial, and the products, equipment, software and services that go with them.
IRE 2027 runs February 16 to 18, 2027, at the Las Vegas Convention Center, West Hall, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Who goes: roofing contractors of every kind, from residential shingle and metal installers to commercial low-slope crews, plus distributors, manufacturers, equipment and software vendors, and the insurance and safety companies that serve the trade.
What a metal roofer or fabricator gets out of it: metal is one segment of a much larger floor, so the deep bench of roll former and seamer builders you see at METALCON is thinner here. In exchange you get the fastener, underlayment, safety, estimating and business vendors who serve the whole roofing trade, the NRCA education program, and the chance to see how shingle and low-slope contractors run sales and operations. For a company that does metal alongside other systems, it is the show to attend. Our 2027 trade show calendar compares it with the other shows on the list.
