Event
FPTA/CTD Annual Conference & EXPO
Florida's statewide transit conference and expo, billed for 2027 as a joint FPTA and CTD event at the Hilton and Ocean Center in Daytona Beach.
FPTA holds its statewide conference and expo October 24-27, 2027 at the Hilton and Ocean Center in Daytona Beach. The 2027 edition is billed as a joint FPTA and CTD event with the Florida Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged. FPTA’s meetings calendar carries dates and venue only; no program details are published yet.
Why it matters for the data layer
The audience is the same statewide mix as the 2026 Orlando edition: Florida transit agency executives and staff, FDOT district transit staff, and the vendors exhibiting to both. What the joint billing adds is the coordinated-transportation side, and those providers hold trip and eligibility data that rarely reaches a public feed. Paratransit and coordinated service records are where the gap between what an agency knows and what a rider can look up is widest.
FPTA’s calendar also fixes 2027 dates for the Triple Crown Roadeo and the FPTA/FDOT/CUTR workshop, so the Florida year is plannable now.
