To provide a safer environment for its attendees and exhibitors, the North American Trailer Dealers Association rescheduled the 2020 NATDA Trailer Show to October 26-28, 2020. The NATDA announced the new dates for the 2020 show today, July 7.
The 2020 NATDA Trailer Show, originally scheduled in September, will still take place in Nashville, TN, but will take on a new date pattern as it will now be a Monday-through-Wednesday show. Attendees and exhibitors who have already secured hotel rooms through NATDA’s official block will have their dates automatically transferred to accommodate the new schedule.
Other annual RV events including the PRVCA Hershey show , RVIA Aftermarket Conference and RVIA California RV Show have also been rescheduled in recent weeks with public health in mind. Recent spikes in COVID-19 cases in hotspots across the country have lead event organizers to reconsider and rework their 2020 plans.

“While registration for September was going well, we feel it’s our responsibility to provide a safe place for the trailer industry to connect,” said Jesse Battle, NATDA executive director. “With a September date, we faced a very real possibility of the city itself not being open for business. October not only places us in a better position, but it provides dealers and exhibitors alike much needed time to handle business.”
The show will maintain each component previously announced, including hands-on technical training. Additionally, NATDA will introduce a new segment of the show called NATDA Base Camp, specifically for manufacturers of overland and adventure trailers.
Dealers can register to attend October’s show by visiting www.natda.org/tradeshow/dealer-registration. Dealers who have already registered for the event but are unable to attend due to the new dates are encouraged to call Senior Membership Manager Melanie Bierweiler at 727-360-0304 x108 to cancel.
