Nashville – Today, American Trucking Associations’ Technology & Maintenance Council opened TMC’s 2026 Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition here at the Music City Center.

This year’s theme is “Innovative Strategies for Technical Leadership” and will feature TMC’s customary slate of educational sessions, task force meetings, technical sessions, and management sessions as the Council celebrates its 70th Anniversary.  Additionally, the Council’s Transportation Technology Exhibition trade show will showcase leading-edge technologies for fleet maintenance management. This year’s exhibit is sold-out, featuring approximately 375 vendors spanning 350,000 square feet.
