The Great Canadian Suite returns to NAB Show

The Great Canadian Suite, an NAB Show tradition for most of the last 60 years, returns to Las Vegas on Monday, April 17.

Presented poolside at The Flamingo Hotel by Broadcast Dialogue and Cartt.ca, in concert with Gold Sponsors Vizrt Group and Applied Electronics, the event brings together Canadians from the film, TV, radio, production, and digital sectors, in addition to the vendors that service them.

“The Great Canadian Suite has been around since the ’60s. It’s one of those iconic feel good happenings with which I am proud to be associated,” said Broadcast Dialogue and Cartt.ca publisher Shawn Smith. 

Founded by Applied Electronics, the Great Canadian Suite started in a single hotel suite. The event has a rich history, which at its peak involved securing between 400 and 500 rooms at the infamous Dunes Hotel where all of the Canadians stayed and did business together. It’s since evolved into a three-hour poolside event from 6 – 9 p.m. on the Monday of NAB Show.

This year’s event will be the first Great Canadian Suite to be held since 2019. Broadcast Dialogue and Cartt.ca are now calling for sponsors.

“The Great Canadian Suite does not happen without our sponsors who greatly underwrite this event and minimize the cost for our attendees,” expressed Smith. “We’re finalizing those Silver and Bronze partnerships now and will be announcing ticketing info in the next few weeks.”
