The Orlando International Record Convention is taking over 20,000 square feet at the Central Florida Fairgrounds from January 30th through February 1st, 2026. This three-day show brings record dealers from across the country to one spot for collectors looking to dig through vinyl, CDs, memorabilia, and everything in between.
Doors open at 8am on Thursday, January 30th with a $20 admission that’s good for all three days. Friday and Saturday offer two entry options. Early admission at 8am costs $10, while general admission at 10am drops to $5. The show closes at 5pm on Thursday and Friday, then runs until 6pm on Saturday to give people extra time on the final day.
The fairgrounds provide enough space for dealers to spread out their inventory without the cramped table setup you get at smaller shows. Whether you’re hunting for first pressings, rare imports, or just browsing to see what catches your eye, the dealer selection covers multiple genres and formats. Vinyl collectors will find plenty to flip through, but there’s also a solid selection of CDs, cassettes, and music memorabilia.
Matt and Jeff’s Records runs the show, and they’ve been organizing record conventions for years. They host multiple shows throughout the year, with the next ones scheduled for June 28th and November 1st, 2026 if you miss this one or want to come back later in the year.
The Central Florida Fairgrounds is the venue, located in Orlando. It’s a straightforward setup with parking available on-site. If you’re serious about records, three days gives you time to hit the show multiple times and catch dealers restocking or making deals as the weekend goes on.
