WHY MIX?
A Legacy of Serving the Midwest Since 2015—MIX Chicago regional markets, produced by Silver Lining Shows, were established in 2015 at the request of sales representatives and manufacturers who wanted a professional, affordable alternative to the rising costs of downtown trade shows. For more than a decade, Silver Lining has remained committed to delivering value, quality, and meaningful business opportunities for exhibitors and buyers alike.
The strength of MIX has always been its people. Our exhibitors represent the industry's most recognized and trusted brands, while our buyers come to discover quality lines, new introductions, and create long-term vendor partnerships.
That commitment to excellence continues to define who we are and where we're headed.
WHY JULY?
The July market weekend is a perfectly timed and unique industry gathering for a wide variety of categories – especially Gift & Lifestyle. We already have a strong lineup of manufacturers, regional and national sales managers, and industry professionals planning to attend.
