The Florida Audio Expo just announced its inaugural show. This show will be held on Friday February 8th through Sunday February 10th, 2019 at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Tampa Airport Westshore. The new southeast show seeks to give music lovers the chance to personally audition some of the industry's finest offerings, all taking place in sunny Florida. The show is free to the public, unlike many of the other audiophile shows around the country that charge an admission fee.

The Embassy Suites venue, originally built as condominiums, offers larger demo spaces that are more like real-world homes than cramped small hotel rooms.

An early list of exhibitors include: Gryphon Audio, LampizatOr, Legacy Audio, Luxman, Magico Loudspeakers, MBL North America, and VAC. More are expected.

"Our mission for creating the Florida Audio Expo was to bring a strong offering to the Southeast market with a fun atmosphere for enjoying music--we want to celebrate our lifestyle and support the industry in this region," said Bart Andeer, founder of Resolution Acoustics and manager of the Expo's daily operations. "We have been working this idea for a few years, but wanted to find the right venue available at the right time of year, and we believe we have achieved both for the 2019 show. We strongly encourage regional dealers and manufacturers from all over the US who are looking for a new option."

The Florida Audio Expo is only a five-minute drive from the Tampa International Airport. The Embassy Suites are close to such local attractions as Busch Gardens, and just an hour's drive from Walt Disney World. Additional benefits for attendees and exhibitors staying at the Embassy Suites include free airport shuttle, free breakfast, and free happy hour.
