NTDA announces dates, locations for upcoming conventions

The National Trailer Dealers Association (NTDA) has announced the future dates and locations of its annual convention.

The NTDA says the annual event provides an atmosphere that blends world-class educational offerings as well as events that allow for candid networking and the open exchange of ideas, information and strategies for facing the challenges of the trailer industry.

“The NTDA Annual Convention brings together decision-makers from trailer dealerships throughout North America along with all of the top-level trailer OEMs and service providers,” says Gwendolyn Brown, NTDA president. “Our mission is clear — to help trailer dealers increase efficiency and profitability, and our educational programs, presentations and general sessions are all geared to make this happen. The convention also includes the best networking events available in the industry.”

  • The NTDA will host its 30th Annual Convention at Renaissance Indian Wells Resort & Spa, Indian Wells, Calif., Oct. 14-16, 2020.
  • The 31st Annual Convention will take place at Fairmont ChateauWhistler, in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada, Oct. 6-8, 2021.
  • The 32nd Annual Convention will be held at The Broadmoor, Colorado Springs, Colo., Oct. 11-14, 2022.
  • The 33rd Annual Convention will be held at the JW Marriott Marco Island Beach Resort, Marco Island, Fla., Oct. 4-6, 2023.

“Our members have come to expect the annual NTDA Convention will be held at a five-star resort in a beautiful setting, and with world-class golfing, events and networking opportunities to match our world-class educational sessions, and the Association has delivered all that plus incredible educational content and networking year over year,” Brown says.

Each annual NTDA Convention includes educational sessions, industry and economic overviews, a world-class keynote speaker, special networking events for new members and industry leaders, and an exhibition and luncheon that features more than 100 displays, the NTDA says.

Many NTDA members introduce new products and innovations at the event. The association says 820 members attended the 29th Annual Convention held Oct. 9-11, 2019, at The Breakers in Palm Beach, Fla.

An additional highlight of each year’s convention program is the annual Golf Tournament, which has become a fundraiser for the NTDA’s Scholarship Program. The NTDA has awarded more than $170,000 in scholarships to 52 students since 1998.
