Vision Expo, North America's leading event for eyecare and eyewear, comes to The Venetian Expo in Las Vegas from Wednesday 10 to Saturday 13 March 2027. The conference programme starts on Wednesday and the exhibit hall is open from Thursday 11 to Saturday 13 March. The show is co-owned by RX and The Vision Council, and 2026 marked the debut of a single, unified annual Vision Expo: the former Vision Expo East and Vision Expo West web addresses now lead to the one show, which the organiser says will rotate among major US cities. The 2026 edition in Orlando welcomed more than 8,000 industry professionals from 92 countries and more than 350 exhibitors. It is built for optometrists, opticians, ophthalmic staff, practice owners, buyers, designers and lab professionals, and children are not permitted in the conference or exhibit hall. The organiser's headquarter hotel, The Venetian Resort, is connected to The Venetian Expo, and its other official hotels are within a few miles. This page shows live Las Vegas hotel rates near the Venetian for your dates, as an independent alternative to the official block.

Where should you eat during Vision Expo?
CES dinners book out weeks ahead: the good rooms near the Convention Center go first. These are the spots Vegas regulars actually take clients: reserve before you fly, and keep one casual back-up for the nights the schedule slips.

How do you get to Vision Expo?
From Harry Reid International (LAS)
- Harry Reid International is the Las Vegas airport, and taxis wait outside baggage claim at both terminals
- At Terminal 1, taxis are on the east side near outside doors 1 to 4; at Terminal 3 they are on Level Zero near door 52
- Uber and Lyft pick up in signed areas inside the parking garages: Level 2 of the garage at Terminal 1 and the Valet Level at Terminal 3
- Public buses run by the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada also serve the airport, and the airport lists shuttle services to select Strip hotels
Hire cars and arriving by road
- The airport's Rent-A-Car Center is at 7135 Gilespie Street, about three miles south of the airport, and is reached by shuttle bus
- The Venetian Expo's address is 201 Sands Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89169, and the organiser's headquarter hotel, The Venetian Resort, is connected to it
- If you drive in, check parking charges with your hotel, as the organiser does not publish parking rates on its hotel and travel page
- Allow extra time on the shuttle back to the terminals when you return a hire car before your flight home
How do you get around during Vision Expo?
Getting to The Venetian Expo each day
- The organiser's headquarter hotel, The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, is connected to The Venetian Expo, which it describes as a short walk
- All official Vision Expo 2027 hotels booked through Connections Housing are within a few miles of The Venetian Expo, according to the organiser
- Mid-Strip hotels around Harrah's and The LINQ put you close to the Las Vegas Monorail's Harrah's & The LINQ Station
- Expect security checks at entry: the organiser lists badge verification, bag checks and screening, so leave time before your first course
Around Las Vegas
- The Las Vegas Monorail has seven stations along the east side of the Strip, from MGM Grand to SAHARA Las Vegas, including Boingo Station at the Las Vegas Convention Center
- Trains run every 4 to 8 minutes, from 7am every day until midnight on Monday, 2am Tuesday to Thursday and 3am Friday to Sunday
- Rideshare and taxis are the simplest way to reach restaurants off the Strip; leave a margin at the start and end of the show day
- Strip restaurants fill up during big conferences, so reserve tables for client and team dinners ahead
Do you need a visa for Vision Expo?
Visa-free / visa on arrival
- Citizens of Visa Waiver Program countries (including the UK, most of the EU, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore) can travel without a visa using an approved ESTA
- Apply for your ESTA online well before you fly rather than at the last minute
- Canadian citizens generally need neither a visa nor an ESTA for business visits of this kind
eVisa / visa required
- Nationals of countries outside the Visa Waiver Program, including China and India, need a B-1 business visitor visa with an in person consular interview
- US visa interview wait times vary widely by country, so start the process as soon as your trip is likely
- The organiser does not mention a visa letter service on the pages we checked, so contact Vision Expo customer service early if you need a supporting letter
Documents to carry
- Your Vision Expo registration confirmation and evidence of your professional role, such as an employer or practice letter
- A recognised photo ID: the organiser asks every participant to carry one at the event
- Proof of accommodation and a return or onward ticket: CBP officers can ask for both
- A passport valid for your entire stay; VWP travellers must hold an e-passport
US entry requirements and fees change; verify current rules with the US embassy or official government sources before you book.
First time at Vision Expo?
- Registration for Vision Expo 2027 was not yet open when we checked; the organiser has a form to notify you when it opens. A hotel booking with us does not include registration
- You do not need the conference to visit the exhibit hall: the organiser offers options for the hall only, continuing education only, or both
- The exhibit hall is open 9:30am to 6pm on Thursday 11 and Friday 12 March and 9:30am to 3pm on Saturday 13 March
- Children are not permitted in the conference or exhibit hall; the organiser points families to in-room childcare through Jovie Hotel Sitters in Las Vegas, booked in advance
- Wear your badge at all times and keep your belongings with you: the organiser runs badge checks, bag checks and screening at entry
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- If you are taking accredited courses, note that the conference starts on Wednesday 10 March, a day before the exhibit hall opens, so arrive by Tuesday evening
- The hall closes at 3pm on Saturday 13 March, which leaves time for an evening flight home, or add a Saturday night if you prefer not to rush
- In 2026 the show floor had a NOW Stage for eyewear trends, an Innovation Stage in the Eyecare area and an Eyewear Fashion Show, so check the 2027 schedule for similar sessions when it is published
