2026 Lounges
Step off the show floor and into something unexpected. National Comp’s themed lounges offer a chance to recharge and reconnect without ever leaving the expo. Whether you're looking to unwind with pet therapy, snap a professional headshot, or just grab a coffee and reset, there's a lounge for every mood.
Sometimes the best wellness break is a cuddle. Step into our returning Pet Therapy Lounge to de-stress, recharge, and connect—with the help of certified therapy animals. From friendly pups to a charming chicken and even a goat, this lounge offers a playful pause in the middle of a packed conference day.

A sweet surprise awaited attendees at National Comp 2025 in Nashville. The Goo Goo Cluster Custom Chocolate Lounge offered a hands-on experience like no other. Attendees created their very own nut-free custom Goo Goo Cluster using nostalgic mix-ins like Cocoa Pebbles, pretzels, marshmallows, and more. More than just a treat, it was a taste of Nashville’s rich culinary history. Proudly made in Music City for over a century, Goo Goo Cluster brought local flavor and tradition right to the expo floor.
