Anticipation Builds for the PCA Trade Show in New Orleans
The PCA Trade Show is undeniably the highlight of the year for cigar enthusiasts and industry professionals alike. With over 25 countries represented and 250+ manufacturers showcasing their offerings, the annual event promises to be an unparalleled platform for buying and selling premium cigars, pipes, and accessories. Scheduled to happen in the vibrant city of New Orleans, this year's show is gearing up to be one for the record books.
Whether you’re a manufacturer, retailer, broker, supplier, distributor, or part of the media, the PCA Trade Show is an event you simply cannot afford to miss. Every year, this trade show brings together thousands of attendees in one place to celebrate their shared passion for exquisite tobacco products. In 2024, we anticipate the emergence of over 200 new boutique cigar brands making their mark in the industry—a testament to the vibrant growth and creativity within the cigar community.
One of the most significant advantages of attending the PCA Trade Show is that all proceeds are funneled directly into advocacy programs that defend and promote specialty tobacco retailing. Thus, your participation actively supports the very industry that we all cherish.
Among the excitement generated by this year’s show are several highly anticipated new cigar lines and releases that will debut, including My Father Blue, Karen Berger's Ixtelli, and Stoic Cigars. These new entries exemplify the innovation and craftsmanship that are hallmarks of premium cigar creation.
