Special con sneaking into Vegas

A convention is coming up in Las Vegas that should be great fun for enthusiasts.

Sneaker Con celebrates everything about this type of iconic footwear. The upcoming convention is organized by eBay, which recently acquired Sneaker Con’s authentication business. The acquisition extends the cooperation between eBay and Sneaker Con, a measure that has helped drive eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee. eBay started this service, which uses a team of experts to authentical sneakers bought on eBay, in 2020.

Sneaker Con was founded in 2009 and has established a worldwide community where people can buy, trade, and sell sneakers. It began offering authentication in 2018, a responsibility that now falls to online auction site eBay.

Attendees can expect to find great deals on exclusive merchandise, and a chance to meet content creators and influencers. There will be giveaways, pop-up brand opportunities, auctions of sneakers, and more.

The “40 FOR 40” game show will be held on the Main Stage, with DJ RARI emceeing the event. eBay will have a booth set up where people will find freebies, and have a chance to get the eBay Authenticity Guarantee.

Sneaker Con is sneaking into Las Vegas on July 8 and July 9, and settling in at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. When events like this are planned, organizers can use flyer printing to create handouts for those attending, listing vendors and celebrities, and where they will appear.
