The Franchise Expo Miami 2027: where to stay near the Convention Center

The Franchise Expo lands in Miami in June 2027 as South Florida's largest "Own Your Own Business" event. Across two days at the Miami Airport Convention Center, visitors meet directly with established franchisors and newer brands covering food, fitness, education, home services and more. It is a chance to size up business models, investment levels and available territories side by side instead of chasing meetings across the country. The show also runs free seminars on the practical side of ownership: what to ask before signing an agreement, financing and government assistance options, and how to match a concept to your own skills. Industry suppliers and advisors are on the floor, so you can leave with a shortlist rather than a bag of brochures. National Event Management produces more than 25 events across North America each year, and the Miami edition carries that same format into Florida. Saturday draws the biggest crowds, Sunday runs a shorter schedule, and the mix of attendees ranges from first-time buyers to multi-unit operators looking to expand in the Miami market.
