The next FlightSimExpo will be held on June 23-25, 2023 in Houston, TX.

FlightSimExpo Houston will be held at two locations hear Houston’s Hobby Airport. On Friday, June 23, seminars and a welcome social are held at the DoubleTree Hobby Airport. On Saturday and Sunday, the event shifts to the Lone Star Flight Museum at Ellington Airport (EFD) for exhibits and seminars.

Attendees will be able to fly their own aircraft to the event, or drive from nearby hotels. The museum is a 15-minute drive from Hobby Airport (HOU) and 45 minutes from George Bush Intercontinental (IAH).

See the "To and From the Airport" drop-down on our travel page for transportation options between the airport and FlightSimExpo hotels.

The Museum is a quick 15-minute drive from the two host hotels. Free parking, rental cars, rideshare, and carpool options make it an easy trip! We’ve made carpooling easy with a dedicated chatroom for attendees on Discord, the social app for FlightSimExpo.

Additionally, coach buses will run a shuttle service to/from the Museum throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday. Departing every 20-30 minutes, the buses will stop at the DoubleTree, Marriott, and Lone Star Flight Museum and are free for all FlightSimExpo attendees courtesy of Blackbird Simulations, Thrustmaster, and X-Plane.

Normally, we determine the location of the show with voting through the community. However, the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted a different approach this year. Houston/Texas has been one of the most-requested destinations from attendees in previous years, and we’re very excited about bringing the event to an aviation museum for the first time.

FlightSimExpo has worked with our venues and third-party security providers to conduct a review of security resources and best practices. These best practices will be applied throughout the event. Please wear your FlightSimExpo badge at all times when accessing event venues and expect to see a mix of security and uniformed police officers during conference hours. These officers are in place to ensure the event remains accessible, safe, and welcoming to all registered attendees and partners.

As we did with FlightSimExpo 2021 in San Diego, we plan to follow local, state, and federal guidelines regarding COVID-19 and other attendee health and safety practices. Any requirements will be clearly communicated prior to attendee registration. At the moment, we do not anticipate requirements for masks, social distancing, or any other above-and-beyond safety measures.
