With just three weeks until NADA Show, the countdown is officially on — and for dealers and managers, this is the moment to lock in plans. The pace of change in retail automotive isn’t slowing, and the pressures facing dealerships today demand sharper strategies, stronger leadership and smarter operations. There’s no better place to prepare for what’s next than NADA Show.
This isn’t just another conference. NADA Show is where dealership leaders step out of the day-to-day and into the future of our industry. It’s where owners, general managers, department leaders and standout team members gain clarity on what’s working, what’s changing and how to stay competitive in an increasingly complex marketplace.
Stronger Teams Start With Better Leaders
For managers especially, NADA Show is an investment in leadership development. The event offers a rare opportunity to sharpen skills, learn from peers across the country (and around the world) and bring fresh energy back to the dealership. When managers grow, teams perform better — and that impact shows up on the bottom line.
Sending managers to Show also sends a clear message: leadership matters, and continuous improvement is a priority.
Real-World Insights You Can Use Immediately
Every session, workshop and conversation at NADA Show is designed with one goal in mind: helping dealerships perform better. From fixed ops and sales to marketing, HR, compliance and leadership, the education is practical, relevant and led by experts who understand the realities of running a dealership.
Attendees don’t leave with theory — they leave with playbooks, benchmarks and ideas they can put to work as soon as they’re back at the store.
A Marketplace Built for What’s Next
The Expo adds dimension, offering hands-on access to the latest tools, technologies and partners shaping the industry.
With the expansion of North Hall, the 2026 NADA Expo will deliver our biggest marketplace yet! More than 600 exhibitors — from established industry leaders to disruptive newcomers — will be ready to demonstrate innovations designed to help dealerships operate smarter and more profitably.
Connections That Matter
Throughout the event, NADA Show delivers unmatched networking. Dealers and managers connect with peers facing the same challenges, exchange ideas and build relationships that last long after Show ends.
On Tuesday evening, be sure to join us for a welcome reception like no other. Hosted at Las Vegas’ Grand Prix Plaza, the experience brings high-energy entertainment and a one-of-a-kind setting that car enthusiasts and adrenaline seekers alike will enjoy!
