What's on at the Javits Center

Every once in a while I hear about one of my professional friends going to some conference or trade fair or other at the Javits center, and out of curiosity I looked up what kind of events get held there. There are tons of conferences. Here's an updated listing:

I keep hearing about the IBS going on there this weekend; not entirely sure what it entails. But, it sounds pretty boring to me. Almost like wannabe fashion week or something.

I went to the Javits Center for a job expo once about 4 years ago. Haven't been there since.

It is a really depressing place. You want to pick up the bottle after a visit. Seriously.

I'd wager most of the events are infernally boring. The performing arts conference that happens there is by far the most commercial and personality-less one in existence.

Have you guys seen Up in the Air? The place reminds me of the general atmosphere of the hotels/lounges in that film (down to the color palette)

Ha, so is the point of this forum that no one should ever go to the Javits Center?

@NeverSleeps not at all .. its a typical trade fair hall and I have been to bigger trade fair centers in Frankfurt so I wasn't bothered by the atmosphere or anything...
