World of Concrete 2022 will follow all local health guidelines, including Nevada’s mandate for masks to be worn in all public places, regardless of vaccination status.

The mask rule applies to indoor settings only, and includes all casinos, meeting spaces and convention centres, as well as restaurants and bars in Las Vegas and throughout the state.

“Masking is an important tool to help provide a safer environment during this current surge of Omicron, and we appreciate all WOC 2022 participants complying with this state mandate for the benefit of all who enjoy coming to WOC this and every year,” the statement explained.

“Additionally, we will have hand sanitizing stations throughout the venue, as well as an enhanced sanitation schedule, and widened aisles to promote social distancing.”

World of Concrete registration

Attendees are asked to register for the show online before World of Concrete begins, as there will be no onsite registration.

World of Concrete is working in partnership and communication with the City of Las Vegas and local health officials for expertise and guidance and will continue to provide updates on any changes to health and safety program moving forward.
