White Plains, N.Y. —

The New York International Gift Fair was recently ranked among the top shows in the U.S. by Trade Show Executive and Tradeshow Week, two leading exposition industry trade publications.

NYIGF was named one of Trade Show Executive’s 2009 “Gold 100” honorees, based on the magazine’s selection of “gold standard-setting” events within the $85 billion exposition industry.

Tradeshow Week, which is owned by HTT parent company Reed Business Information, ranked NYIGF 28th out of the 200 largest U.S. trade shows based on net square feet of paid exhibit space.

Next year’s shows will take place Jan. 30 through Feb. 4 and Aug. 14-20 in New York at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center and Passenger Ship Terminal Pier 94.
