    Why it matters

    Attending Flow Expo on 2027-03-13 to 2027-03-13 in Pomona lets buyers and specifiers benchmark suppliers, see live demonstrations, and compress months of vendor meetings into one focused trade visit — worthwhile when your category roadmap aligns with the official exhibitor profile.

    Industry trends

    Key trends shaping this market and its wider industry.

    01

    Digital buyer journeys

    How trade buyers research, shortlist and schedule suppliers online before and during a show.

    02

    Sustainability in procurement

    Growing buyer pressure to evidence energy use, recyclable materials and carbon performance in purchasing decisions.

    03

    Automation and labour efficiency

    Rising adoption of machinery and software that cut downtime and reduce reliance on scarce skilled labour.

    04

    Regional supply-chain resilience

    Buyers spreading sourcing across regions to reduce risk while still demanding local service and spare parts.

    05

    Hybrid engagement models

    The shift from one-off show contact to year-round digital catalogues, webinars and supplier portals.

    Plumbing, heating and flow-control trade circuit

    Book travel 6–10 weeks before opening day for March shows, since AHR Expo, KBIS and ISH all cluster in the northern-hemisphere winter and spring, tightening hotel and airlift availability.

    Flow Expo is the regional Southern California stop for plumbing, hydronic heating and water-system buyers, sitting alongside national US shows and the major European sanitary and HVAC fairs that contractors, wholesalers and specifiers use to compare brands and pricing.

    Visa & entry documents

    Check the latest visa requirements and entry guidelines before travelling.

    Visa required
    ATA Carnet: accepted
    TypeWho needs itFeeProcessing
    B-1 Temporary Business Visitor VisaForeign nationals travelling to the United States to attend a business convention, trade show or contract negotiation who are not eligible for the Visa Waiver Program.$185.00Apply 8–12 weeks ahead; appointment wait times vary significantly by consulate and can run several weeks to months.
    Visa Waiver Program / ESTACitizens of Visa Waiver Program countries (including the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea and most EU states) travelling for business or pleasure for up to 90 days.$21.00Usually approved within 72 hours; apply at least 7 days before departure and reapply every two years.

    US citizens and permanent residents need no visa; citizens of Visa Waiver Program countries may travel on an approved ESTA instead of a B-1 visa. Canadian citizens generally enter for business with a passport and no visa. ATA carnets are accepted in the United States for trade-show exhibits and professional equipment — issue them through your national guaranteeing body (USCIB in the US) before departure.

    Official visa page

    Weather

    March in Pomona delivers some of the best trade-show weather of the year: sunny afternoons with highs of 20–24°C (68–75°F) and crisp evenings dropping to 8–10°C (47–50°F). It sits at the tail of Southern California's rainy season, so expect roughly five wet days and 40–60 mm of rain across the month, usually arriving as short but intense showers rather than all-day rain. Pack light layers for warm afternoons and cool evenings, a compact umbrella, and comfortable walking shoes — the Fairplex campus is large and much of the show is walked outdoors between halls.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon all deliver strong 5G coverage across Pomona and the Fairplex campus, and T-Mobile and AT&T prepaid tourist SIMs (about USD 30–50 for 10–30 GB) are sold at stores in the Ontario Mills and Montclair areas — bring an unlocked phone and photo ID. Travellers from Europe and Asia can buy a US data eSIM from Airalo, Holafly or Nomad before departure and activate it on landing to avoid roaming charges. Venue and hotel Wi-Fi handles email and messaging, but exhibit halls get congested during live demos, so a personal data plan is worth having for streaming or booth video calls.

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Tipping and payment

    Restaurant servers expect 15–20% tips and bartenders USD 1–2 per drink; taxis and rideshares are usually tipped through the app. Cards are accepted almost everywhere on and around the Fairplex campus, but carry small cash for parking gates and tips.

    Business dress and etiquette

    Trade-show business casual is the norm — polo shirts, khakis or jeans with work boots are standard on a plumbing and HVAC floor, while a jacket helps for distributor meetings. Handshakes, first names and punctuality are expected; meetings start on time.

    Getting around

    Pomona is car-centric and the Fairplex campus is spread out, so journeys that look short on a map can take 10–15 minutes by car or shuttle. Build transfer time into meeting schedules and keep a rideshare app loaded with a US-capable payment method.

    Practical guides

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Destination: ONT

    Book into Ontario International (ONT) whenever possible: it is 25–35 minutes from Fairplex and a much cheaper rideshare than LAX, and it is served by Southwest, American, Delta, Alaska, United and Frontier. International travellers should compare LAX for nonstop long-haul routes, then budget a 60–90 minute ground transfer to Pomona. Reserve 6–10 weeks ahead for mid-March travel, avoid LAX-to-Pomona road transfers between 07:00–10:00 and 15:00–19:00, and check baggage rules if you are bringing tools or product samples for the show floor.

    Visa

    Attending a business convention or trade show is a recognised B-1 purpose. Foreign nationals generally need a US visitor visa (B-1) unless they qualify for the Visa Waiver Program.

    Estimated cost: USD 185 non-refundable, non-transferable application fee

    Processing: Varies by nationality and consulate; interview appointments can take weeks to months, so apply well before March 2027.

    Carry your Flow Expo registration confirmation to the visa interview and check current wait times at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in your country.

    Transport

    Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

    Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Ontario International Airport (ONT): 25–35 minutes off-peak; Los Angeles International Airport (LAX): 55–85 minutes off-peak; up to 2 hours in weekday peak; John Wayne Airport, Orange County (SNA): 55–80 minutes off-peak; Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR): 60–85 minutes off-peak. Allow road or rail time to Fairplex; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.

    Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Fairplex: On the Fairplex campus, 1101 W. McKinley Ave, Pomona: Sheraton Fairplex Suites & Conference Center; ~1.6 km from Fairplex Administration Offices, Pomona: Travelodge by Wyndham Fairplex Pomona; ~4.2 km from the venue, Pomona: Comfort Inn Pomona near Fairplex.

    Ride-hail: Uber and Lyft both operate across Pomona and the wider Inland Empire, with pick-up and drop-off at the Fairplex main entrance on 1101 W. McKinley Ave. Typical fares: Ontario International Airport (ONT) to Fairplex USD 25–45, LAX to Fairplex USD 90–140, and downtown Pomona hotels to the show about USD 10–18 (8–12 minutes). Surge pricing is common at show close around 17:00, so pre-book a return ride or walk to the Sheraton Fairplex lobby for pick-up.

    Public transit: Foothill Transit buses run along Garey Ave and Holt Ave into downtown Pomona (USD 1.75 one-way; USD 5.00 day pass), about a 10-minute rideshare from the Fairplex gates. Metrolink's San Bernardino Line links LA Union Station to Pomona in roughly 45–60 minutes (USD 3.25–9.00 one-way depending on origin zone) — a practical option for delegates staying in central Los Angeles. Allow two hours door-to-door from downtown LA, and note that local service thins out after 19:00.

    Parking: Fairplex operates large on-site surface lots entered from W. McKinley Ave, with event parking typically USD 10–15 per vehicle per day and premium lots priced higher; cash and card are accepted at the gates. A Park & Ride lot off Gillette Rd serves overflow traffic, and free parking is offered by several nearby hotels including the Travelodge, Comfort Inn and Sheraton. Arrive before 08:30 for the closest spaces — the fairgrounds campus is walkable but spread out.

    Weather

    Plan and pack for the event climate.

    Month: March 2027

    Temperature: Daytime highs 20–24°C (68–75°F); overnight lows 8–10°C (47–50°F)

    Packing: Pack light layers for warm afternoons and cool evenings, a compact umbrella for brief showers, comfortable walking shoes for the 500-acre Fairplex campus, and business casual clothing for meetings.

    Plan your trip

    Planning

    Best day to visit: 13 March 2027

    Flow Expo runs a single exhibition day on 13 March 2027 at Fairplex, so there is no quieter second day to target — every exhibit, manufacturer training session and networking event happens that day. Plan to be on the floor from the 09:00 opening until close, arrive in Southern California the evening before if you are travelling from outside the region, and pre-book your badge and any booth meetings in advance.

    1

    Check passport validity and start a B-1 visa or ESTA application if required — Register for Flow Expo first so you can present your confirmation at the visa interview if needed.

    2

    Book flights into the Los Angeles / Ontario airport area — Compare fares early; Ontario airport is the closest corridor to Pomona, with LAX as a larger alternative.

    3

    Reserve a hotel near the Fairplex — Sheraton Fairplex Suites, Travelodge, Comfort Inn and La Quinta in Pomona are within a few kilometres of the venue.

    4

    Complete free online visitor pre-registration at flowexpousa.com — Save the QR code on your phone; pre-registered visitors scan at a badge station and skip the on-site registration queue.

    5

    6

    Plan your arrival route to the Fairplex — Use the Fairplex maps and directions page; the venue is at 1101 W. McKinley Ave., Pomona, CA 91768.

    7

    Arrange airport transfer, rental car or Metrolink travel — Moovit routes and the Pomona Fairplex Metrolink station connect the venue to the wider region.

    8

    Review the Education 2027 programme and shortlist sessions — Pick sessions by product category so you can plan hall time around them.

    9

    Request B2B meetings with target manufacturers and wholesalers — Email the manufacturers, representatives and suppliers on your shortlist ahead of the show.

    10

    Check Pomona weather and pack appropriately — March is mild and dry with highs near 21°C; pack layers, a compact umbrella and comfortable shoes.

    11

    Prepare spec sheets, business cards and a meeting agenda — Bring project drawings and budget notes for on-stand technical discussions.

    12

    Confirm badge collection, show hours and hall entrance — Check the registration page for the latest opening times and badge station locations.

    13

    Travel day - arrive, collect your badge and settle in — Arrive early to allow time for badge pickup and an initial look at the halls.
