Indiana Green Expo 2027: front office reads a 2,000-delegate February block

The Indiana Convention Center forecasts 2,000 attendees for the Indiana Green Expo, February 8 to 10, 2027. The Westin Indianapolis is the headquarter hotel and the organiser's block carries two midweek nights. No 2027 rate or cut-off is published.

The published window

The venue forecasts 2,000 attendees for the Indiana Green Expo, February 8 to February 10, 2027. The forecast sits beside the venue name and the dates on the venue's event page. February 8 is a Monday, February 9 a Tuesday and February 10 a Wednesday.

The organiser runs the show for the green industry. Its site names the Midwest Regional Turf Foundation and the Indiana Nursery and Landscape Association as the two not-for-profit organisations behind it. That site states that registration fees become a donation to both bodies if a registrant cannot attend.

Two nights inside a midweek window

A delegate covering the published window needs the nights of Monday February 8 and Tuesday February 9, then checks out on the Wednesday. Both nights fall on weekdays. The window carries no weekend night.

The headquarter property

The organiser's hotel page names the Westin Indianapolis, 241 W Washington St, Indianapolis, IN 46204, as the headquarter hotel. The page places the property across the street from the Indiana Convention Center. Visit Indy's connected-hotel roster lists the Westin at 575 sleeping rooms and 42,500 square feet of meeting space.

The same page asks guests to stay in the headquarter hotel. It states that a stay there is important to the success of the overall event and each participating not-for-profit organisation.

The organiser's room-block link resolves to a Passkey page headed Indiana Green Expo 2026 and dated February 8 to February 11, 2026. The Westin is its only property. The page now reads "Reservations are closed." The 2026 cut-off moved to January 23, 2026.

What the rate record holds

The 2027 block rate and the 2027 cut-off are unpublished.

Engine's Indianapolis table carries the city's public rate record. It averages $128 a night across 1.2 million observations from May 2024 to April 2026. February averages $107, which is 16 percent below the city average and the cheapest month of the year. May averages $158. Rates swing 32 percent across the year, and Indianapolis ranks 39 of 50 markets, 14 percent below the $148 median.

Engine defines a par rate as the cheapest public price at the time of each search, and it draws its observations from searches made 10 to 180 days before check-in. The table carries no weekday or weekend split and no February 2027 rate.

The February week around the expo

The venue's event feed carries 14 records between January 20 and February 28, 2027. The Indiana Health and Safety Conference & Expo opens Sunday February 7 and runs to Wednesday February 10. The Core-Mark Expo opens Wednesday February 10 and runs to Thursday February 11.

Four of the 14 records start between February 7 and February 12: the health and safety conference, the Green Expo, the Core-Mark Expo and the Economic Club of Indiana luncheon. The Henry Schein National Sales Meeting runs February 2 to 4, and the American Football Coaches Association convention runs February 14 to 16.

What the front desk does with the number

The 2,000 is the venue's forecast. Two nights at that figure is 4,000 room nights, which is 56.34 percent of the 7,100 downtown rooms and 85.11 percent of the 4,700 skywalk-connected rooms. Each share is arithmetic on the forecast.

The venue's footer counts 4,700 downtown rooms on the skywalk network, 200 restaurants within walking distance of the Center and 15 minutes to Indianapolis International Airport. Its skywalk page gives the closing and opening clock as event-dependent, with a rule of thumb of a lock-down near 11:00 p.m. and a reopening near 6:00 a.m.

Three steps follow from the published record. Confirm the 2027 block terms and cut-off in writing with the organiser. Set the block rate against the February line in Engine's table. Test any shoulder-night request against the venue's own feed, which carries a record on each of the three expo days and on both adjacent weekdays.
