You will have the opportunity not only to participate in conference activities but also take in other area offerings: horticultural, nature, and of course the nearby world-class attractions in Orlando, FL.

In addition to traditional events like AOS Judging, the Meeting of the Members, Award presentations, and AOS elections, we will feature on Friday evening a welcome social prior to the silent and live auctions. Come on out and mingle with fellow orchid enthusiasts!

There will be 2 days of expert orchid speakers and hands-on orchid workshops.Throughout the weekend: Friday – Sunday, the orchid festival will be open with plants, supplies and vendors from around the world.

A beautiful “Orchid Paradise” banquet is planned for Saturday evening, complete with a gourmet dinner and entertainment. Don’t miss it! Thanks to a generous benefactor, this gala event is included with your registration.
