The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting (AAOS 2027) returns to Las Vegas March 3–6, 2027 at the Venetian Convention and Expo Center. AAOS calls its Annual Meeting the world’s largest gathering of orthopaedic surgeons — it brings together orthopedic surgeons, residents, medical professionals and industry exhibitors for four days of surgical education, research presentations and medical device exhibits.

AAOS 2027 is held at the Venetian Convention and Expo Center (formerly Sands Expo), 201 Sands Ave, Las Vegas, NV. The Venetian Resort is attached directly to the convention center — the closest hotels are the Venetian and Palazzo, with zero commute to the meeting rooms.
