Topping last year’s record-breaking stats, the 2025 edition of GlassBuild America: The Glass, Window & Door Expo, held for the first time in Orlando, Florida, welcomed 598 exhibiting companies occupying over 232,000 net square feet, and over 9,600 participants. GlassBuild 2025 hosted 128 new exhibiting companies, and drew participants from all 50 states, plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, as well as Canada, Mexico and 70 other countries.

“What a show! I am proud to say, we exceeded our goals with a larger trade show floor and higher attendance than last year,” says Lakisha A. Woods, CAE, president & CEO of the National Glass Association (NGA). “In my career, I have attended many trade shows, but during my first GlassBuild, I was blown away by the innovations, solutions and insights on display. I was honored to share this event with new audiences—particularly architects and students; it’s the perfect way to introduce new customers and the future workforce to what makes this industry special.”

����ר��Build 2025 also hosted the 19th NGA Glazing Executives Forum, and the fourth annual Blueprint for Collaboration educational event for the architecture community, with a special Glass Magazine Awards breakfast and presentation, highlighting industry collaborations with architect partners. The event featured a full roster of education and events on the GlassBuild Main Stage, including the fourth annual Women in Glass + Fenestration event, in collaboration with the National Association of Women in Construction.

And, for the first time, NGA hosted the GlassBuild Skills Challenge, a hands-on space for people in the trades to take pride in the work they do. The challenges included the Shower Design Challenge and the Are You AGMT Ready? Challenge, plus the InstallationMasters Challenge and IG Fabrication Challenge, presented by the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance.

Throughout the event, GlassBuild attendees and exhibitors noted the renewed energy and excitement as well as the true spotlight of industry innovation throughout the show floor.

The next GlassBuild America will take place September 23-25, 2026, at Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
