Tampa, Florida—January 2023—Florida International Audio Expo takes place Friday–Sunday, February 17–19, at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Tampa Airport Westshore. The more than 65 exhibit spaces will be the scene for plenty of action—several rooms will unveil new products, letting show attendees be among the first to experience some of the best new high-performance audio gear.
“We have been traveling the globe to reach new exhibitors, and locally, we are participating in several shows to reach new attendee groups,” said Bart Andeer, co-founder and operations manager of the Florida International Audio Expo. “We are proud to offer our attendees the opportunity to experience various levels of products available in the market, always with the focus on celebrating and enjoying our shared passion for music in a fun, relaxed environment.”
With over 12 floors of demonstrations to explore, attendees will experience electronics, loudspeakers, turntables, and headphones from all over the world. The larger banquet rooms will feature special presentations from such brands as Acora/VAC, Clarisys/Bloc, Classic Audio, MBL, Thrax/Lansche, and TAD.

* Exhibit rooms are still available through December 30. The incredible draw of Florida’s warm weather makes the Expo a wonderful winter escape for many, but the cold weather in much of the rest of the country means that it will also be the height of Florida’s tourism season—our host hotel will quickly sell out of rooms. (Other hotels within walking distance of the Expo are listed below.)
