With North America’s largest construction trade show set to take place again this coming March in Las Vegas, the question is: Are you and your organization ready for CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026? 

While so much has changed in the two-plus years since CONEXPO-CON/AGG and AEM last brought construction professionals, equipment manufacturers, and other industry stakeholders together in March of 2023, one thing remains for certain: AEM is committed to ensuring its exhibitors secure the greatest possible return on investment in CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026.  

There’s no better way to see, hear, and learn what AEM and its vendor partners have in store for you ahead of next year’s show than by attending and participating in this summer’s CONEXPO-CON/AGG Exhibitor Meeting. Scheduled for August 19-21, 2025, at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois, the CONEXPO-CON/AGG Exhibitor Meeting is the event to help you, as a show exhibitor, to meet important objectives and learn key information and insights ahead of the 2026 show. 

This year’s Exhibitor Meeting promises to deliver everything show exhibitors need, want, and should know ahead of CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026,” said AEM Vice President of Exhibitions and Exhibitions Data Dana Wuesthoff.Ultimately, we want this event to serve as a one-stop shop for those tasked with preparing their organizations for CONEXPO-CON/AGG to learn about new features and enhancements coming to the show from presenters, keynotes, and experts all directly tied to the trade show industry.” 

Among the many benefits of participating in CONEXPO-CON/AGG Exhibitor Meeting are: 

  • Up-close and-personal access to focused content centered on successful exhibitions strategies
