FDC | Florida Dental Convention 2027 is a trade show in Orlando, FL with approximately 350 exhibitors expected.
More detailed information about this show will be added soon.
Registration for the Florida Dental Convention is handled online through the FDA's convention system at events.floridadental.org. The FDA publishes an onsite program and offers CE certificate/CEU reporting tools for attendees. Prospective attendees should review the FDA's official Registration Policies page and the current onsite program for pass types, course fees and deadlines, as many CE courses and hands-on workshops require advance sign-up and can sell out.
The Florida Dental Convention is the long-running annual convention of the Florida Dental Association, organized by the FDA's Committee on Conventions & Continuing Education. In recent years it has been held at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in the Orlando/Kissimmee area, and the FDA has announced FDC2027 for June 24–26, 2027 in Orlando under the theme "Uniting Dentistry's All Stars."
Detailed exhibitor list is being compiled. Check back soon or visit the official show website for the most current information.
6000 West Osceola Parkway
The resort features a stunning glass atrium showcasing diverse Florida landscapes, nine restaurants, Cypress Springs Water Park, South Beach pool, 400,000 square feet of meeting space, and Emerald Bay hotel rooms. The property recently completed a sweeping multi-million-dollar renovation with refreshed guest rooms and an updated lobby with enhanced views of its 4.5-acre garden atrium. For business travelers, the resort boasts 400,000 square feet of impressive meeting space. On-site amenities include nine restaurants and a full-service spa, all within a family-friendly resort setting.
On-site self and valet parking are available at the resort (subject to charges). On-site parking is available at the rate of $24 per night, while valet parking will cost $35 per night, though some listings quote higher rates, so confirm current pricing at booking. Parking fees do not include tax, and in/out privileges apply to overnight guests only, with day guests charged per entry. Electric vehicle charging stations are available (subject to availability).
The venue is easily reached from Central Florida's airports. The Orlando International Airport (MCO) is about 30 to 45 minutes away, and a one-way taxi fare is around $55. The closest airport is Kissimmee Gateway Airport (ISM), located approximately 8.0 miles from the hotel. From Kissimmee Gateway, the drive takes between 15 and 30 minutes depending on traffic, with a one-way taxi fare around $25. Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) and taxis are readily available from both airports; renting a car is also an option, with on-site parking available at the resort. Alternate airport transportation is available through Mears Transportation.
The Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center is itself the host hotel, so attendees can stay on-site. The resort has 1,718 individually decorated guestrooms. The property sits in the Kissimmee/Orlando theme-park corridor, so numerous additional hotels are within a short drive. Gaylord Palms is conveniently located near Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort. The resort is located off Interstate 4, near SeaWorld (6.6 mi) and Universal Studios (11 mi), an area with many chain and resort hotels. Booking a room in the LTEN room block (when available) is typically the most convenient option.
FDC2027 is scheduled for June 24–26, 2027 in the Orlando, FL area. Recent conventions have been held at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Kissimmee, just outside Orlando.
The convention is designed for the entire dental team, including dentists, dental hygienists, dental assistants, practice administrators and dental students.
FDC offers 150+ CE courses, and attendees can earn up to 22 CE credit hours across the three-day event.
The convention features 350+ vendors in its Exhibit Hall, showcasing the latest dental products, technology and services.
Registration is completed online through the FDA's convention system at events.floridadental.org, where the onsite program and course listings are posted. The FDA also secures discounted room blocks at nearby Marriott-family hotels, and the host Gaylord Palms Resort tends to sell out early, so booking ahead is advised.
