Posted On: February 5, 2026
Volusia County residents, businesses, and community organizations are invited to take part in a Hurricane Expo scheduled from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 18, in the pavilion area at the Daytona International Speedway. The event will focus on hurricane preparedness while also offering opportunities for organizations and businesses to participate as vendors or event sponsors. The Hurricane Expo is hosted by the Volusia County Organizations Active in Disasters (COAD) in partnership with Volusia County Emergency Management.
The free, family-friendly event will help residents prepare for hurricane season by offering information on emergency alerts, property protection, and practical steps households can take before storms threaten the area. Attendees will be able to explore dozens of hurricane-related educational exhibits and connect with vendors offering products and services that support storm readiness.
The event will also include live safety demonstrations, educational presentations, guest speakers, and a Touch-A-Truck experience featuring fire, EMS, law enforcement, and utility vehicles. Food will be available for purchase, and giveaways will be offered throughout the day.
Organizations and businesses interested in participating may reserve a 10-by-10 vendor space for $100, which includes a table and two chairs. Vendor space is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and sponsorship opportunities ranging from $500 to $2,000 are available through COAD for those interested in supporting the event and increasing visibility through event-related recognition. Nonprofit organizations and government entities that provide hurricane-related preparedness or response services may participate at no cost and are encouraged to inquire about table availability.
Additional information about the Hurricane Expo, including details for organizations interested in becoming a sponsor or reserving a vendor table, is available at www.volusia.org/hurricaneexpo, which includes an online participation form.
