T.H.E. Show Celebrates 28th Year as America's Longest Running HiFi Audio Event

Costa Mesa, CA – April 8, 2024 – T.H.E. Show, America's longest-running HiFi audio event, proudly announces its 28th year, set to take place from June 7-9, 2024, at the Hilton Orange County Costa Mesa, CA, once again.

T.H.E. Show has been a cornerstone of the audiophile community, located in the heart of the music/entertainment capital of the world, drawing enthusiasts, industry professionals, and leading brands together for nearly three decades. With its commitment to showcasing the latest innovations in audio technology, along with fostering a vibrant year-round community of music lovers, T.H.E. Show continues to be the must-attend event for anyone passionate about high-fidelity audio.

For its 28th installment, T.H.E. Show promises an unparalleled experience for attendees. With an expansive exhibition space for the second year at the Hilton Orange County Costa Mesa, attendees can explore a diverse array of exhibitions, from established industry leaders to promising newcomers, showcasing the finest in audio systems, from turntables and speakers to amplifiers and headphones, personal and portable audio, vinyl, and more.

“We are thrilled to celebrate our 28th year,” said Emiko E. Carlin, President of T.H.E. Show. “Year after year, our team brings together passionate audiophiles and industry professionals, creating an environment of innovation, discovery, and camaraderie. We look forward to welcoming seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike to experience the magic of T.H.E. Show. Moreover, we recognize and rejoice in how much we have grown beyond being an annual audio event. With the launch of our record label last year, our FM radio show headed into syndication across multiple states, and our award-winning documentary film, ’T.H.E. Human Side’ now in almost 200 million homes across the world, we are delighted to see our mission to bridge the gap between music creation and music listening be realized. Furthermore, it’s so heartwarming to know T.H.E. Show is where people come to explore and learn why HiFi is so valuable. We love that we’ve successfully created an ecosystem in which ‘HiFi’ and ‘audiophile’ are not just terms to define audio, they have become states of being and ways of life for everyone.”

In addition to even more exhibits than T.H.E. Show last June, T.H.E. Show SoCal 2024 will feature world and show premieres of new companies and components over multiple floors including the already sold-out conference center of the hotel, captivating seminars, workshops, and live demonstrations led by industry experts and luminaries. Attendees will have the opportunity to gain insights into the latest trends, techniques, technologies shaping the world of high-fidelity audio, and be the first to experience them. Among the confirmed brands and exhibitions are: Gryphon Audio, Estelon, PBN Audio, McIntosh, ATCLoudspeakers, AGD Productions, Triangle Art, SVS, Elac North America, RSL Speakers. Premieres include J. Porter Studios, WiiM Audio, HIFIMAN, Brane Audio, and more.

Moreover, T.H.E. Show will host special events, live performances, and networking opportunities, providing attendees with unforgettable experiences and fostering connections within the vibrant audiophile community.

Thanks for posting, Ron.

Meet up today in the bar area and the lobby at 5 PM!
 
The first day of T.H.E Show 2024 is in the books as they say, and apart from WBF's own Ron Resnick's informative YouTube videos, it's been radio silence about the show. Sure, in my Social Media (Facebook) feeds there are manufacturers, distributors and dealers posting that they will be in attendance, but that's about it.

I assumed that some reporting on the show, albeit casual by attendees. would be in evidence. I will not presume it is being covered or even attended by the "hi-fi media."

Lastly, there isn't even an official social media hashtag ( i.e. #theshow2024, #theshowcostamesa2024, theshowsocal2024) upon which to search resulting exclusively in content from THIS year's "T.H.E Show 2024" taking place at the Costa Mesa Hilton in Costa Mesa, California.

I am being this definitive with my lexicon because that's how social media works. If you want people to find your posts it is helpful for them to have a precise target upon which to search.

Steve thanks for this Day 1 report. It is informative.
 
Having seen this thread "T.H.E. Show Costa Mesa, CA, June 7 - 9, 2024" I was under the impression that it was the one and and only. I have been admonished in the past about starting a new thread where there was in place that was of the topic. It was only because I saw the aforementioned thread that I did NOT start a new one.
