Wellington hurricane expo is set for May 2 at Mall at Wellington Green

Wellington’s free Hurricane & Severe Weather Expo is scheduled for May 2 at the Mall at Wellington Green, with preparedness tips, exhibitors, and a raffle.


Wellington is bringing back its Hurricane & Severe Weather Expo on Saturday, May 2, giving residents a free, local chance to get ready before hurricane season begins.

The Village of Wellington says the event will be held at the Mall at Wellington Green and is designed to help households review storm plans, supplies, and other preparedness basics before peak storm months arrive.

For homeowners, renters, and families, that makes the expo more practical than a general seasonal reminder. Instead of sorting through scattered advice online, residents can hear preparedness guidance in one place and speak with exhibitors about the steps that matter most in a storm-prone area.

The village’s promotion says the expo will include presentations and exhibitors, along with practical storm-readiness guidance. It also mentions a generator raffle, adding a small incentive for attendees who are already thinking about backup power, fuel, and outage planning.

That timing matters. With hurricane season approaching, early preparation can make a difference for people who need to check supplies, review evacuation plans, or decide whether they are ready for a longer outage. Events like this also tend to be useful for new residents who may not yet know which local agencies, vendors, or emergency resources to keep on hand.

Wellington has been using the expo to push preparedness before the season starts, which is a reminder that storm readiness is not just a countywide or regional issue. It is a neighborhood-level issue that affects daily life, especially for households balancing work schedules, school routines, and the cost of emergency supplies.

The village’s news updates and event page identify the expo as a free community event, and WPBF’s regional hurricane-ready roundup also notes Wellington’s event as part of the area’s preparedness calendar. For residents who want a local option without traveling far, the expo offers a simple way to get information ahead of summer weather risks.

If you plan to attend, the main details remain straightforward: the event is scheduled for May 2 at the Mall at Wellington Green, and Wellington says admission is free.
