ArchLIGHT Summit, Dallas Market Center‘s lighting event for the commercial and architectural and design communities, will move from September to June beginning next year in order to take place alongside Lightovation.
The new June dates are:
June 22–23, 2027: ArchLIGHT Summit
June 23–26, 2027: Lightovation
By holding the two events together, DMC is trying to create a total sourcing and education experience for the lighting industry and draw a wider array of attendees to Dallas in a single trip.
“Lightovation’s leadership in the residential lighting market will be greatly enhanced by the presence of ArchLIGHT Summit’s robust educational platform and technology-focused commercial lighting exhibits,” said Laura Van Zeyl, vice president of marketing for Lightovation. “And there is no better opportunity for ArchLIGHT Summit attendees to source decorative lighting alongside application solutions in one convenient trip. Bringing the two events together truly represents the full spectrum of the entire North American lighting industry.”
The ArchLIGHT Summit will move into a newly redeveloped space on the ninth floor of the World Trade Center in Dallas, which DMC said offers a “superior layout,” scalable space and areas for meetings and events.
The DALI Alliance, which produces internationally standardized protocols for digital communication between lighting-control devices, is participating in this year’s ArchLIGHT Summit and hosting its North America summit onsite, and has accepted an invitation to return in June 2027, Dallas Market Center said.
