DEMA Show 2027

The DEMA Show is a trade event for the dive, eco, and adventure travel industry, connecting suppliers, operators, and retailers. It is a key platform for showcasing new products, services, and trends in adventure tourism.

DEMA Show 2027

DEMA Show 2027 runs November 2–5, 2027 in the West Hall of the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. It moves to Orlando from New Orleans, where the 2026 show is held.

What it is

DEMA Show is the trade-only event of the Diving Equipment & Marketing Association, for companies doing business in scuba diving, ocean water sports and adventure and dive travel. The organiser frames it around three jobs: sourcing dive equipment, growing retail businesses and building dive travel partnerships. Its 2026 sponsors include equipment makers, training agencies such as PADI and IANTD, dive resorts and the Philippine Department of Tourism, and the four days combine the show floor with an education programme of seminars and exhibitor-sponsored sessions.

Planning notes

• Trade only. Admission requires industry credentials; the organiser publishes its credential requirements on demashow.com.
• Trip planning. Visit Orlando runs a trip-planning site for DEMA Show 2027 participants, with dining, getting around and discounted attraction tickets offered only to show participants.
• Exhibitors. Space selection for 2027 takes place on-site during DEMA Show 2026 in New Orleans, at the Sales Office by appointment.

DEMA Show rotates between three cities. The organiser lists November 14–17, 2028 at the Las Vegas Convention Center (South Hall), November 6–9, 2029 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, and November 12–15, 2030 back at the Orange County Convention Center.
