All times are local to the venue · America/Los Angeles
An estimate of 18,000 attendees appears in the San Diego Convention Center calendar for the American Urological Association 2027 Annual Convention; it is not a confirmed count. The venue identifies the event as a convention with trade show, but visitors will need the organizer’s information to determine the program, access terms and what happens on each day.
The convention is scheduled for May 21–24, 2027, at the San Diego Convention Center. The venue listing confirms a trade-show component, but does not name exhibitors, speakers or sessions, or give exhibit hours and daily opening and closing times. It also does not set out event-specific entry rules.
That leaves the organizer’s event website as the place to check before choosing a day or making travel plans. The venue listing links to it but does not state registration fees, booking instructions or who is eligible to attend.

A Convention Center construction update reviewed in August 2026 said the second phase of the Park Boulevard and Harbor Drive crossing project was expected to begin in 2027 and continue through late 2028. Planned work includes changes to pedestrian movements and the traffic signal, with some single-lane closures. The update also listed a North County Transit District platform project across from the Convention Center: construction was expected to start in late 2026, with passenger service estimated to begin in early 2028.
The published timelines mean construction could overlap the convention dates: the Park Boulevard project’s second phase is expected to begin sometime in 2027, while the North County Transit District project is expected to start in late 2026. The venue cautions that project schedules and details can change. Check its latest construction information closer to May rather than treating the August update as a final travel notice.
