Builders hoping to make their annual trip to Providence, Rhode Island, next spring for the JLC Live residential construction show will have to - once again - hit the pause button. Show organizers recently announced that the trade show has been rescheduled for August 11-14, 2021, at the Rhode Island Convention Center. The exhibit hall will be open Friday and Saturday, August 13-14, and conference opportunities will be offered beginning Wednesday, August 11. More details will be available at ne.jlclive.com in the coming months.

According to a statement from show director Kristen McKercher, "This decision was made with our community in mind, as many of you have expressed an interest in a later 2021 show to allow the necessary time to plan for a successful in-person event, both confidently and effectively. We’ll be refocusing our efforts in early 2021 on how to build new opportunities for our industry to connect in exciting ways and we welcome your ideas and feedback on ways we can continue to deliver valuable business connections."
