I've only been to the Orlando location and really like it there. Just wondering how the other cities/locations stacked up. Please make a pick if you have an opinion on this topic. I've even made it anonymous so you can be sneaky!

Just curious, really would be nice if some dealers could chip in.

The Embassy Suites is a great location for the Tampa show.
When traveling cross country it doesn't matter a lot where in Florida the show is.
I just hate the timing of it being the first week of the year in regards to vacation time.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Orlando!
Truly, there is no contest here. I really dislike the Tampa location and set-up while Orlando has always felt much more welcome, clean, convenient and safe. To be honest, I do not even recall doing FUN in Fort Lauderdale, but that does not mean I haven't done the show in that city. Regardless, Orlando works exceptionally well and I am always disappointed when it cannot be held in the convention center in Orlando.

I have only been to FUN in Orlando and found it to be a great venue.
Not only is Orlando a better central location it is much more Bang for your Buck on your Wallet!
If I were to go.... Orlando would be my preference - I lived in Florida for five years and know the various cities.... Cheers, RickO
Orlando is everyone's favorite but sometimes arrangements are beyond the boards control. Great kudos to the efforts of FUN for putting on the show
Orlando isn't everyone's favorite; I like Tampa best. But then I live there....
My only complaint with Orlando is the Convention Center is so big and there's too much walking around endless hallways.
Ft Lauderdale is a direct shot for me on the east coast - I take Alligator Alley [ I-75 S ] from Naples
and I am there in 1:45 minutes. Hotels are outrageous though - so - I'm going to commute with a few friends
who are my house guests.
Tampa is a straight shot up I-75 North - I can get there in 2:30 minutes . I liked Embassy Suites - especially the bridge
over the main road. Public parking was adjacent to the show - and I opted to leave my car there for the duration
of the show - next to the guard booth.
Orlando is huge, yes. Lots of things to do after the show - Its a 3:45 minute drive - but - staying at the Rosen Centre
next to Summer FUN - worked out well... its also just across the street from the Winter FUN venue. Jeff is 100% correct,
the walking in Orlando is insane,
Best spot in Orlando is the Hyatt.

Definitely liked Tampa over Orlando for many reasons.
