# Print UV

> Print UV is the biennial peer conference where printing and packaging industry leaders convene to advance UV, LED UV, special effects, high-value print, premium packaging, and practical AI.

Print UV 2027 takes place April 19–21, 2027 at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas. It is an intimate leadership conference — not a trade show — for owners, executives, production leaders, technical experts, and supplier partners across commercial print, packaging, and label converting — on offset, flexo, and digital operations.

Optional AI workshops (in conjunction with Imagine AI Live) open the program on Monday afternoon; a conference-wide evening welcome reception follows. Tuesday and Wednesday are full content days.
