FABTECH 2024 will be held October 15-17, 2024, in Orlando, FL, at the Orange County Convention Center.
The decision to relocate FABTECH to Orlando in 2024 was made after careful deliberation by FABTECH show management. FABTECH was originally scheduled for Las Vegas in November 2024; however, the city of Las Vegas is slated to host the Formula 1 Grand Prix Race during the same timeframe in November, with 100,000-plus projected visitors expected to descend on the city. This development makes Las Vegas not optimal to host FABTECH in 2024 as planned. As a result, other viable venue locations were evaluated. However, FABTECH will be back in Las Vegas in 2026, October 21-23. The convention will be in Chicago in 2025, September 8-9.
The changes in location for 2024 deviate from FABTECH’s regular rotation of Chicago, Las Vegas, and Atlanta. However, according to event partners, these changes to the schedule will ensure a better overall experience for attendees, exhibitors, and all event stakeholders. And who doesn’t love Orlando for any convention?
