We are dedicated to making METALCON 2021 the safest event you attend all year.
As we plan to bring the Metal Construction Industry back together for the first time in two years, the health and safety of our attendees, exhibitors, speakers, sponsors, partners and staff is, and will remain, our top priority.
We are continuously monitoring the COVID-19 situation and we are working closely with the city of Tampa and the Tampa Convention Center to implement and follow best practices and recommendations from public health officials, as well as national, state, regional, and local authorities including the CDC. Currently, the CDC recommendations include wearing a mask at all times, regardless of vaccination status, especially in large gatherings, being vaccinated, social distancing, and regular hand washing.
Our Health and Safety Standards, as well as those of our partnering venues are posted on our web site. We promise to continue to keep you informed as we get closer to METALCON so be sure to check this page regularly. We are confident that with your support and these safety measures in place, we can all meet safely in Tampa for a fantastic event.
We can’t wait to host you in Tampa this October!
Best Regards, Your METALCON Team

Hunger is a challenge that does not discriminate. METALCON continues its annual tradition of supporting the local community where the show takes place. This year, we are partnering with Feeding Tampa Bay, who are part of the national Feeding America network and focused on providing food to over 1 million food insecure families in the 10-county area of West Central Florida. For over 20 years since the "Give Back" program began in 1995, METALCON has proudly donated upwards of a half a million dollars in goods, services and/or funds to non-profit organizations and worthy causes serving local host communities.
Fundraising has already begun! You can donate online or on-site at METALCON. All donations (minimum $20) will be entered into our daily raffle drawing for a chance to win some amazing prizes (must be at the show to win).
