On Feb. 25, 2026, NBAA will return to Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (KOPF) to host its Southeast Regional Forum. The association last held the forum at that location in 2024, attracting more than 3,700 attendees from 24 countries and 44 U.S. states, alongside 193 exhibitors and 25 aircraft on display.
NBAA hosted its Southeast forum this year in Orlando, Florida, drawing thousands of attendees—including 400 students—and business aircraft from Bombardier, Cirrus Aircraft, Dassault Aviation, Daher Aircraft, Gulfstream Aerospace, Honda Aircraft Company, Leonardo Helicopters, and Textron Aviation, among others.
For the 2026 Miami forum, NBAA plans to release exhibitor information this October and open badge registration in November.
Meanwhile, the second such event in 2026, the Northeast Regional Forum, will be held June 3 and remains in White Plains, New York, at Westchester County Airport (KHPN), where it is held annually. This year’s White Plains event drew record attendance, a sold-out exhibit floor, and 20 aircraft on display. It also featured a flying advanced air mobility aircraft for the first time.
Exhibitor information for the White Plains event will also be released in October, with badge registration available by April 2026.
The one-day forums are designed to expand outreach to the business aviation community in various regions, providing the opportunity to network, showcase innovations, foster business, spotlight new technologies, and offer professional development.
