International
As the heir to SOFIC, SOF Week gathers the international special forces community every spring in Tampa. Next edition from May 3 to 6, 2027, at the Tampa Convention Center.
SOF Week, the meeting place for special forces
Combatant equipment, tactical communications, light mobility, intelligence, medical support, training. Visitors: operators, program managers, and buyers from US and allied forces. Organized by the Global SOF Foundation in partnership with USSOCOM, the exhibition offers direct access to end-users. A closed community that judges on actual results.
Tampa Convention Center
On the waterfront, downtown, just minutes from Tampa Airport. The city is home to MacDill Air Force Base, headquarters of USSOCOM. A qualified but busy audience, moving between sessions and exhibition halls. Security constraints specific to defense events apply.
