The Retail Innovation Conference & Expo (RICE) 2024 is taking place June 4-6, in Chicago, and attendees can expect...

To ensure you lock in savings early with next year’s budget, here are some key event details to know:

The #RICE24 theme will be centered around the evolving customer journey. The program will be built around what we believe are the core pillars of this new customer journey: Content, Community and Commerce. 

Registration will officially open on January 17, 2024 – be sure to mark your calendars and stay tuned for more details!

We’ve revised our pass-types to accommodate all types of registrants and event needs/goals. Whether you only want to attend the expo hall, one specific content track, one specific day of the event, or access it all, we have a pass type for you! Review the various pass-types and pricing here. (note: prices will increase on February 2, 2024)

The event is moving to the West Hall in McCormick Place, which is more convenient and easier to navigate. The keynote room will be directly connected to the expo hall and the conference sessions will just be a short escalator ride away. No more running from the expo hall to the conference sessions!

We’re moving forward with our single banner conference brand, The Retail Innovation Conference & Expo. We’ve streamlined the conference into three topical agenda tracks — Content, Community and Commerce –  to give attendees the quality time and focus needed to truly soak in all the key learnings with ample networking time. 

You can expect strategic sessions through workshop formats and roundtables, intimate C-level panels from leading retailers, meaningful offsite networking events and interactive learning experiences such as the Store Tours Program around unique Chicago neighborhoods.    

To better understand which of the three tracks is most applicable to your role, check out our latest blog to get all the details! We’ll also have our highly rated expo hall sessions on the Next Stages again this year. Those sessions will not overlap with the conference sessions, so you can have a hassle-free learning experience.
