From July 23rd to 26th, the heart of Las Vegas pulsed with innovation, celebrity energy, and cutting-edge culture at the 2024 CHAMPS Trade Show — the largest and most influential event in the smoke shop industry. Known officially as The Confederation of Head and Music Park Suppliers, CHAMPS has, for years, held its reputation as the premier destination for counterculture brands, artists, and industry leaders. This year, the show once again exceeded expectations — with high-profile guests such as Snoop Dogg, Hulk Hogan, and Mike Tyson among past attendees, CHAMPS continues to be the place where industry icons and legends converge.
Among the stars shining at this prestigious event was international vocalist Kate Bode , whose performance became one of the highlights of the Las Vegas showcase. Known for her powerful voice, magnetic stage presence, and collaborations with Grammy-winning musicians and producers, Kate delivered a performance that seamlessly merged artistry with innovation — echoing the spirit of CHAMPS itself.
Performing for a diverse, global audience of creatives, tastemakers, and entrepreneurs, Kate Bode captivated the crowd with a mix of soul, jazz, and modern soundscapes. Her appearance not only brought a unique musical energy to the show but also emphasized the growing role of high-caliber entertainment in enhancing industry events of this scale.
In a space where product launches meet pop culture, Kate’s live set served as a reminder that music remains a universal connector — even in a trade show centered on business and branding. Her presence elevated the CHAMPS experience, blending elegance and authenticity in one of the world’s most dynamic cities.
As CHAMPS continues to grow in size and global influence, the addition of artists like Kate Bode reflects the show’s evolution into a true cultural phenomenon. From industry insiders to celebrity guests, this year’s event was not only a commercial success — it was a celebration of vision, creativity, and the power of performance.
