NATDA extends expo hours for 2023 Trailer Show

Nov. 14, 2022
According to the NTDA, the show's extended hours will provide the chance for early networking and flexibility for dealers on Tuesday

 "The decision to adjust the show to a full two-day schedule came after receiving feedback from our attending dealerships, exhibitors, and sponsors," says NATDA’s Gibbon.

The North American Trailer Dealers Association (NATDA) has announced dates and a new schedule for the 2023 NADTA Trailer Show. The event returns to Music City Center in Nashville, Tennessee, from Wednesday, August 30 to Thursday, August 31, with tailored events beginning on Tuesday, August 29.

The event begins with Dealership Performance Training featuring hands-on service workshops. Also on Tuesday, roundtables and panel sessions, and an evening networking hour will take place for those arriving in Nashville early.

Wednesday morning sees more Dealership Performance Training with formal classes and additional technical workshops beginning at 8:00 am, with the Expo Hall opening from 1 pm to 6 pm on the same day. The day will conclude with networking events on the show floor.

On Thursday, the Expo Hall will open at 9 am and will be open until the show closes at 5 pm. Giveaways, exhibitor and new product award announcements, and the Ultimate Prize Package (introduced in 2022) will all be presented towards the end of the day on Thursday. On Thursday night, the day will continue with sponsored after-hour events.

 "The decision to adjust the show to a full two-day schedule came after receiving feedback from our attending dealerships, exhibitors, and sponsors," says Andria Gibbon, executive director of NATDA. "We've listened to that feedback and are happy to deliver the new schedule that extends the Expo Hall Hours and reduces the number of days dealers are away from their dealerships. And it provides interactive sessions and a chance for additional networking for those who come in early on Tuesday. We plan to ensure that the NATDA Trailer Show continues to deliver everything the industry expects from the event."

Attendees and exhibitors will also be able to take advantage of discounted hotel rates at a range of hotels included in the NATDA Trailer Show's room block. NATDA Dealer members also receive a free night's room stay with a valid membership.

Potential exhibitors should contact Karen Anderson at 727-360-0304 x105 to secure booth space. Hotel reservations and attendee registration, which is complimentary for dealer members, will open late in Q1.
