Cosmoprof North America Miami 2027Exhibitor guide for Miami Beach: booth costs, key dates, deadlines

Cosmoprof North America Miami runs January 26–28, 2027, Tuesday to Thursday. The floor is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Thursday, and registration opens on Saturday, January 23.

The show fills the Miami Beach Convention Center on Convention Center Drive, a few blocks from the ocean. Cosmoprof notes the center sits 12 miles from Miami International Airport and six miles from Downtown Miami and PortMiami.

The third edition in January 2026 drew 19,000 attendee visits from 105 countries and 845 exhibitors from 39 countries on 16,983 sq m, per the Cosmoprof brochure. 61% of exhibitors came from outside the U.S., with nine country pavilions.

Cash-and-carry is not allowed. Cosmoprof is strictly business-to-business, manufacturers may not sell to individuals for personal use, and exhibitors found doing so are removed at their own expense. Take orders and samples requests instead and plan the booth for meetings.

The show is for beauty industry professionals only, and children under 18 are not admitted to the floor or classes. Licensed stylists, nail techs and estheticians may attend, but Cosmoprof says there is no technical hair or nail education. On Thursday, January 28, a limited ticketed group of fragrance enthusiasts and content creators may visit The Fragrance Experience.

In 2026, 45% of visitors were brands and manufacturers and 39% were buyers: retail buyers, distributors and importers or exporters. Florida, New York, California, New Jersey and Texas led U.S. attendance, and Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil and Ecuador led international visits, per Cosmoprof.

Cosmoprof prices Miami space per square meter, with a Ready Stand package or raw space; ask its sales team for the 2027 rate. For the build, a 10×20 rental with shelving and lighting typically runs $7,500 to $15,000 and a custom 20×20 $50,000 to $120,000, before Expo CCI and drayage charges.

The Ready Stand comes with BeMatrix fabric walls, carpet, a 500-watt outlet, a table, four chairs, a shelving unit, a track light and a name sign. Raw space is concrete only, and the exhibitor supplies an 8-foot finished back wall, side walls where needed and mandatory flooring. Purple builds for raw space.

Stands of 60 sq m or more in Halls A to D and machinery move in Friday and Saturday, January 22–23, during 8 a.m.–5 p.m. shifts. The remaining stands except The Beauty Vanities start Sunday, January 24, and everyone finishes Monday, January 25, by 7 p.m.

The booth design and hanging sign approval request is due January 5, 2027, per the Cosmoprof exhibitor resources page, alongside the non-official contractor (EAC) form and sample certificate of insurance. We prepare the drawings and file both for you.

A curated fragrance destination debuting in 2027 in a dedicated ballroom at the convention center, for fragrance houses, ingredient suppliers, packaging and filling partners, brands, distributors and retailers. Business meetings run all three days, and Thursday adds the ticketed enthusiast and creator audience.

onPeak is the only hotel provider endorsed by Cosmoprof North America for Miami 2027, and the organizer warns against other housing companies. Delta and United offer show discounts, and Miami Beach's trolley runs 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily on about a 20-minute frequency.

Choose Miami for Latin American, Caribbean and East Coast distribution: only 16% of 2026 Miami visitors had been to Las Vegas in 2025, and 23% of Miami exhibitors did both. Las Vegas in July is the larger show for the U.S. West and national retail.

A small brand with a few SKUs can start in The Beauty Vanities, an all-inclusive curated area with its own high-end look, or in a country pavilion. A brand ready for distributors and retail buyers gets more from its own stand with a meeting table.
