Welcome to our second Vape Live event , this time coming to you from the USA !

Thank you for your continued support

This year has been incredibly challenging for all of us , be you in the USA , the UK or anywhere else , for that matter . The coronavirus and global lockdown has given the vape industry yet another huge hurdle to overcome after years of FDA battles , bad science and relentlessly hostile media reporting . But true to form , our industry continues to find innovative ways to rise to the challenge . VOXPO is one such innovation . Our inaugural event in July attracted thousands of visitors from all over the world drawn in by their favourite brands , amazing competitions and giveaways and the chance to learn . But it was also an opportunity to connect – something many of us were missing during the shutdown . Now , our USA show once again invites you to reconnect . We are also delighted to bring you our fifth annual Vapouround Awards , where we celebrate the best and brightest from our incredible industry . With all the challenges that 2020 has thrown at us , it has never been more important to share in the successes of those who make the industry truly special . Make sure you join us at 1pm CST on Thursday to find out who walks away with a prestigious Vapouround Award . But the event is about more than celebration – we are here to learn , advocate and educate . We have an incredible line up of speakers and experts from all disciplines check those out to get the most from your weekend .

And let ’ s not forget why we are all here . Vaping is an incredible innovation that is saving millions of people around the world from deadly tobacco addiction . Events such as VOXPO give us the chance to grow the industry during a truly challenging time and tool ourselves with the knowledge to speak out for this incredible technology .

So relax , grab a cup of coffee and get ready for the virtual event of the year .
