InfoComm 2027 brings the professional audiovisual industry to Orlando's Orange County Convention Center from 12–18 June, with conference programming through the week and the show floor — plus co-located RESIDE and Lightapalooza — concentrated in the final three days, 16–18 June. It is North America's largest pro-AV event: around 31,000 systems integrators, AV designers, IT and unified-communications managers, live-event technicians and venue operators working through display walls, audio demo rooms and control systems. The OCCC sits on International Drive, a resort corridor with enormous hotel supply, yet the walkable properties around the convention district still sell through first because June also brings peak theme-park season to Orlando. This page carries live bookable rates for hotels along International Drive and the surrounding convention district for the InfoComm dates, so you can separate genuine show-week value from tourist-season pricing.

Where to eat during InfoComm
The dining you'll want clusters along International Drive and Restaurant Row (Sand Lake Rd), both minutes from the Orange County Convention Center. Steakhouses fill up when a big convention is in town, so reserve early, and note most upscale rooms don't open until 4-5pm.
The Capital Grille
Steakhouse
Pointe Orlando, walkable from OCCC North/West
A polished, dependable steakhouse for client dinners, with dry-aged steaks and an award-winning wine list. Its Pointe Orlando location makes it one of the closest upscale options to the convention center.
Tip: Has private dining rooms if you're hosting a larger group.

Getting there
From MCO (Orlando International)
- The OCCC is about 20–25 minutes from MCO by car via the Beachline (SR 528); taxis and ride-hail typically run $35–55 to International Drive
- There is no direct rail link to the convention district — road transfer is the practical default
- Lynx public buses connect the airport and the I-Drive area but take well over an hour with changes; they suit budgets, not schedules
- Book return airport transport ahead for the Friday show close, when ride-hail demand spikes
By rail and from other airports
- Brightline trains serve Orlando International from Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach — useful for South Florida integrators, with a road transfer onward to I-Drive
- Orlando Sanford (SFB) is a low-cost alternative about 45 minutes north by car
- Tampa International (TPA) is roughly 90 minutes away by car when MCO fares surge
- Driving in is common for regional attendees; the OCCC has large on-site parking decks
Getting around during InfoComm
Getting to the Orange County Convention Center daily
- Hotels on International Drive within a kilometre of the OCCC make walking viable, but June heat and afternoon thunderstorms are real — carry water and expect 33°C-plus
- The I-Ride Trolley runs along International Drive with stops near the convention centre, a cheap hop between I-Drive hotels and the halls
- Ride-hail is plentiful, though pickup zones around the OCCC clog at the 17:00 close
- Note which building your priorities are in — the West Building and the North-South Building sit across Convention Way from each other
Around Orlando
- Orlando is a car-first city; without one, base yourself on I-Drive and rely on the trolley, ride-hail and hotel shuttles where offered
- June is peak family-holiday season — expect heavy traffic around the theme-park corridors, especially weekends
- Restaurant Row on Sand Lake Road, a short ride from the OCCC, is where much of the industry actually eats and networks
- Afternoon downpours are near-daily in June and usually pass within an hour — plan around them rather than through them
Visa & entry
Visa-free / visa on arrival
- Attendees from the 40+ Visa Waiver Program countries — including the UK, most EU states, Japan, South Korea, Australia and Singapore — enter on an approved ESTA rather than a visa
- ESTA costs $40 since the September 2025 fee increase and remains valid for two years of short visits
- Canadians need neither ESTA nor a visa for conference attendance
eVisa / visa required
- Delegates from India, China, Brazil (non-VWP), the Middle East outside the exempt list and most of Africa and Asia require a B-1 business visitor visa
- Consular interview backlogs vary from weeks to many months — begin as soon as InfoComm registration opens
- Chinese nationals with valid 10-year visas must keep their EVUS registration current before travelling
Documents to carry
- InfoComm registration confirmation and an employer letter outlining the purpose of the trip
- Hotel confirmation and return-flight details for the port-of-entry interview
- A passport valid for your entire stay, with ESTA or visa evidence accessible offline
US entry rules and fees are subject to change — confirm current requirements with the US embassy or official government channels before booking travel.
First time at InfoComm?
- Check the schedule split carefully: conference sessions and training run from 12 June but the exhibit halls open only for the final three days, 16–18 June — book your stay around the parts you actually need
- Collect your badge the day before the show floor opens; Wednesday morning is the week's biggest registration crush
- The OCCC is one of the largest convention centres in the US — map your must-see exhibitors by building and hall before day one
- Audio demo rooms are separated from the main floor and often work on sign-up sheets or queues; hit the ones you care about early in the day
- Dress for extremes: 34°C humidity outside, aggressive air-conditioning inside, and a daily thunderstorm in between
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- Friday 18 June is the quiet day — thinner crowds, easier demos and exhibitors with time to talk detail before teardown
- The manufacturer training sessions and certification classes early in the week are where integrators quietly network away from the floor noise
- Skip the convention-centre lunch queues by walking to the Pointe Orlando complex across International Drive
- Stay north of the OCCC near Universal rather than south towards Disney if you want shorter, cheaper rides — the southern I-Drive traffic is worse in June
InfoComm travel FAQs
Where should I stay for InfoComm?
International Drive within walking distance of the OCCC is the prime zone, with the convention-district hotels immediately around the West and North-South buildings the most convenient. Lake Buena Vista works for attendees combining the trip with family park days, at the cost of a 20–30 minute commute.
How much do hotels cost during InfoComm?
Orlando's vast hotel supply keeps absolute prices gentler than most convention cities, but June is peak leisure season, so show-week rates on I-Drive still climb meaningfully above spring levels. Walkable properties carry the premium; the savings grow the further down I-Drive you go.
How early should I book hotels for InfoComm?
Two to four months ahead usually secures good walkable options, earlier if you need multiple rooms for a team during exhibit days. Because June is family-holiday high season, last-minute availability skews to the far ends of International Drive.
Which airport do I fly into for InfoComm?
Orlando International (MCO), about 20–25 minutes by road from the convention district. Orlando Sanford (SFB) serves some low-cost carriers, and Tampa (TPA) is a 90-minute-drive fallback when MCO pricing spikes.
Are the InfoComm exhibits open all week?
No — InfoComm 2027 runs 12–18 June overall, but that span includes early-week conference sessions and training, with the exhibit halls open for the final three days, 16–18 June. Plan your hotel nights around which programme elements you are attending.
