The leading event for commercial interior design industry since 1969

Hosted at The Mart in Chicago from June 8–10, with a Preview Day on June 7, the event stands as the world’s premier platform for commercial design. Guided by the 2026 theme, “Where Design Connects,” the show will serve as an important nexus for the people, products, and perspectives driving the industry forward. Headlining the 57th edition are three provocative keynote presenters: entrepreneur and inventor Jessica O. Matthews, futurist Nick Foster, and digital prophet David “Shingy” Shing. Kicking off each day of the show, these diverse voices will inspire the NeoCon community with insights on innovation, foresight, and creative resilience.

Adding to this year’s expansive offerings is the debut of Illuminate at NeoCon, a new “show-within-a-show” spotlighting the critical role of lighting in the built environment. All seven exhibition floors of The Mart — 1, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, and 14 — will be open, underscoring NeoCon’s unmatched scale and leadership.
