NADA Show in New Orleans is ON!


Dear Show attendees,
 

The entrepreneurial spirit of auto dealers and the incredible dedication of dealer advocates has never been more apparent to me than over the last few days. I know how difficult it has been for so many of you to get to New Orleans for the 2025 NADA Show. But all of us at NADA are so encouraged by how few of you have given up.

 

Our focus continues to be on doing whatever we can to give everyone the best NADA Show experience possible, and that’s exactly what we’re doing. 

 

To that end, I want to let everyone know that, if you have made it New Orleans for Show, you are invited to attend the NADA Welcome Reception at 7 p.m. Thursday night in the Great Hall of the Convention Center. Trombone Shorty will be there, so please come if you are able and help us kick off Show in proper New Orleans style!

 

I also want to give a special shout-out to our phenomenal exhibitors. Your dedication is unparalleled, and you are a true testament to everything that makes the auto retail industry so special.

 

And to everyone: After the Show concludes on Sunday, we will take a proper look back and make sure we do what should be done for every attendee, exhibitor, guest, etc., who was involved with and who helped make the 2025 Show one for the books.

 

Lastly, I can’t stress enough the importance of downloading the Show mobile app! Understandably, the schedule continues to change, and the app is the best way to get the latest schedule of events, speakers and meetings.

 

We are truly all in this together. And I can’t thank everyone enough for their patience and commitment to America’s franchised auto dealers. I can’t wait to see everyone on Thursday night and throughout the weekend! Travel safe.  — Mike Stanton, NADA President and CEO
