I know about WPPI, which I'll be there.  What other photo related expos in the US are worth attending?

Most of them are topical, so it kinda depends upon your budget, location, and interests.

PPA puts on Imaging USA every January. Usually on the eastern portion of the US
WPPI
Sal Cincotta puts on ShutterFest in St. Louis.
PhotoPro
Out of Chicago
PhotoPlus

Everything else will be smaller. Much depends upon what you're looking for.

Master Classes offered and trade show floors are always fun to walk around on.  Do you attend any of those that you mentioned?

For photo expos purposes, I will recommend you to go to  Imaging USA   It's the longest-running photographic gathering, trade show, and display in the USA

Imaging USA was nearby a few years ago, and I went to the trade show with a friend. It will be nearby again next year (Grapevine, TX) and I plan to attend for the few days, as well as attempt the certification test.

IMO Imaging USA is the best Expo in the U.S.   Photoplus and WPPI attendance I have noticed has reduced in the last few years.  Some expected vendors weren't at these shows in the recent years.
