Discover New Skills and Connections at the 2026 AFAA Annual Fire Expo

If you’re looking to grow your expertise, expand your professional network, and stay ahead of industry trends, make plans now to attend the 2026 Annual Fire Expo hosted by the Automatic Fire Alarm Association (AFAA). This premier event takes place April 14–16, 2026, at the Hilton Indianapolis Hotel & Suites in Indianapolis, Indiana.

The AFAA Annual Fire Expo is one of the most valuable gatherings for fire alarm, emergency communications, and life safety professionals. As the only not-for-profit association dedicated exclusively to the fire alarm industry, AFAA brings together installers, inspectors, designers, manufacturers, and industry partners for three days of education, networking, and innovation.

Attendees can earn 10+ hours of continuing education credits, participate in in-depth sessions on codes, standards, and best practices, and hear from industry thought leaders about emerging technologies and business strategies. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your technical skills, learn how artificial intelligence is shaping fire detection and signaling, or explore ways to enhance your business performance through data and service insights, the Expo delivers practical knowledge you can use on the job.

Perhaps just as important is the opportunity to connect with peers and vendors face-to-face. The Expo’s networking events, receptions, and exhibit hall provide an ideal environment to share ideas, find new solutions, and build relationships with professionals from across the country. For Louisiana system installers and life safety contractors, this is a chance to bring fresh perspectives back to your team and customers.

Investing in your professional development helps your business stay competitive, compliant, and prepared for the evolving demands of life safety and fire protection. The AFAA Annual Fire Expo is designed to help you do just that — grow your skills, broaden your network, and return home with insights that elevate your work and your company.
