Who Shows Up...

Every year, The Car Wash Show™ pulls in the people who make this industry run — owners, operators, entrepreneurs, fix-it-yourself types, the “started with one wash and built an empire” crew, and everyone in between.

• Decision-makers? That’s 86% of the people here.
• Top 100 washes? Over 90% attend.
• Small-but-mighty businesses? Half the audience.

And they come from all 50 states, with international attendance on the rise.
