This page covers five notable construction conferences in Florida for 2026, selected because they span different segments of the industry and different times of year. Design & Construction Week kicks things off in Orlando in February, pulling together residential and commercial builders at one of the larger industry gatherings on the national calendar. Later in the spring, the CertainPath Eagles Summit at St. Pete Beach offers something more focused, built around contractor business performance rather than product displays. For anyone working in plumbing supply or luxury products, Championsgate in late April adds two more events worth stacking into a single trip. If you are planning your 2026 conference schedule and want to know which Florida events are worth the time and budget, this list gives you the specifics to make that call.
