Fabulous Finds

From a magic show to puppy races to opportunities to win exciting prizes, the 2020 NFDA Virtual International Convention & Expo is loaded with ways to enjoy a little downtime. When you’re not in an educational session or “walking” the floor of the Expo Hall, you can mingle with friends or colleagues in a break lounge or take part in one of the many entertainment options we’re offering.  Come on – let’s go exploring!


Don't miss out on other fabulous giveaways provided by exhibitors! Look for the raffle ticket icon in the left hand navigation in the convention platform to see all available giveaways and raffles!

Pivot Towards Positive

Yet through it all, there are still some positive aspects that are emerging among all of the challenges.
