ABOUT FLIGHTSIMEXPO
Welcome to North America's community-driven flight simulation and aviation conference. As the largest
enthusiast flight simulation event in North America, FlightSimExpo connects simmers, developers,
exhibitors, and real-world aviators from across the globe.

After hosting more than 1,600 attendees and 63 exhibitors in Orlando, FlightSimExpo returns on
June 12-14, 2020 at Tropicana Las Vegas.

military and civilian training organizations, and interface with our unique attendee base. The flight

       Directly to Attendees               with giveaway items at their booths instead of in pre-filled bags.

                                             ▪ Attendees will be given empty, branded conference bags at check-in.
