To get to the Westin just follow 17th street causeway straight to the beach as it turns into A1A

Follow A1A north for about 2 1/2 miles. The Westin is on the west side of the street (across from the beach!)
The show is in the convention center part of the hotel which is across the street (on the south side) from the hotel itself. Valet parking with the Westin for this event is just $5 per day.
We apologize for the inconvenience, but it’s only a few minutes away and it’ll be the same show with the same guests that you were expecting!

Any problems, you can call Sandy at 321-276-4752

We’re excited to see you at the show!

Thanks,
