Las Vegas, Nevada, April 27, 2023--This year marked the centennial of the NAB show.  From its humble beginnings in 1923 with just 23 attendees, who got together in New York to discuss the future of broadcasting – and at that time broadcasting was only radio - the NAB show has grown dramatically.  It moved to its (so far) permanent home in Las Vegas in 1988.  Previously, the show took place at various venues in the US including Washington DC, Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlantic City and Cleveland.  From 1978-88 it rotated between Las Vegas and Dallas before “settling” in Las Vegas.  This year, the centennial, there were 65,013 registered attendees from 166 countries.  The highest ever attendance was recorded in 2008 with over 100,000 attendees.
