West Pack 2027 in Anaheim: Where to Stay Near the Convention Center

West Pack 2027 is the West Coast gathering point for the packaging industry, running February 9-11 at the Anaheim Convention Center in California. The show floor brings together leading suppliers of packaging machinery, material handling systems, packaging materials, and contract packaging and outsourcing services. The event sits inside the Informa Markets Engineering West portfolio, sharing the venue with the MedTech, Automation, Design & Manufacturing, and Plastics sectors. That overlap lets packaging professionals compare cross-industry advances in form-fill-seal systems, labeling, barcoding, protective materials, and sustainable formats without a second trip. Expo hours run 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, with Hall E opening 30 minutes earlier each morning. The 2027 edition expects the same trade-only crowd of engineers, plant managers, R&D specialists, and purchasing teams that keeps the show anchored on the packaging calendar. Since the convention center sits minutes from the Disneyland Resort area, Anaheim Resort district hotels book out fast around show dates. Reserving early is the surest way to stay within walking distance of the 800 W. Katella Ave. entrance.
