An indoor manufacturer showcase, outdoor fun, and a can't-miss raffle — SESCO Lighting's annual celebration for the partners and friends who power our business.
SESCOFEST brings together SESCO Lighting's manufacturer partners, contractors, and specifiers for a full day at the Venue on Lake Lily — an indoor manufacturer showcase, outdoor fun, food, and a raffle stacked with big and small prizes.
The venue is open for manufacturer setup on Wednesday. Arrive anytime between 11 AM and 4 PM to get your space ready ahead of the show.
Join us for drinks and conversation before the big day — a great chance to meet the SESCO team and clients before the show.
Dinner details will be sent to you directly by Carmen Lopez.
Doors open for setup at 8:00 AM. Your boxes will be delivered prior to your arrival — you'll find them staged and ready at your table.
** Please refer to the Parking tab for parking instructions.
Guests arrive at 2:00 PM — get ready for some fun! Showcase your latest products and tech to SESCO's contractor, specifier, and customer network throughout the afternoon and evening.
Pack your boxes, label them clearly, and leave them at your table. No need to haul anything out — boxes will be picked up directly from the venue after the event.
If you'd prefer to break down Friday morning instead of Thursday night, the venue will be open from 7 AM to noon.

SESCOFEST traces its roots back to 1990, when it began as an Oktoberfest celebration for SESCO's partners and friends. More than three decades later, the tradition lives on — bigger, brighter, and still all about the people who power our industry. Here's a look back through the years.
Tucked in the heart of Maitland, the Venue on Lake Lily gives SESCOFEST its signature setting — an indoor manufacturer showcase plus open lawns, mature oaks, and a lake that turns gold right on cue at sunset. Easy parking, easy walking, easy day.
Parking instructions for SESCOFEST 2026 are being finalized and will be posted here soon.
