Since its inception in 2014, the show has grown each time to become a must-attend event. Despite the challenges posed by the current economic climate, the importance of staying connected remains paramount. The TMC Trailers Trucking Industry Show is a vital industry initiative, encouraging generations to aspire to work in the ever-evolving world of trucking.

Exciting improvements have been made to the 2025 event, including a revamped floor plan designed to enhance better traffic flow. Additionally, families can look forward to an expanded free kids’ zone, brimming with entertainment and educational activities for all ages.
