The Tire Industry Association (TIA) has opened early registration for its 72nd annual Off-the-Road Tire Conference, which will take place Feb. 24-27, 2027, at the Hyatt Regency New Orleans in New Orleans, La.
The conference is expected to attract more than 500 tire dealers, retreaders, manufacturers, suppliers and service providers from around the world.
The 2027 event will include three half-day general sessions covering technical training, safety, legislative and economic developments, leadership, artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies. The conference also will feature live demonstrations and interactive discussions led by OTR tire industry experts.
TIA officials say the association has expanded tabletop networking opportunities and adjusted the conference schedule based on attendee feedback.
Friday’s general session will conclude at 11 a.m., followed by an expanded Networking Social from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Together We Roll Celebration, which debuted at the 2026 conference, also has been extended until 10:30 p.m.
“One of the greatest strengths of the OTR Tire Conference is that it continues to evolve based on the feedback we receive from our attendees,” says Dick Gust, CEO of TIA.
“The enhancements we’re making for 2027, from expanded networking opportunities to schedule adjustments that maximize valuable face-to-face time, reflect our commitment to delivering the industry’s premier conference experience year after year.”
Other conference activities will include a golf tournament at TPC Louisiana, networking receptions and leisure events.
TIA members in good standing can register for $745 from Aug. 3-17, 2026. The member registration fee will increase to $820 on Aug. 18 and to $870 on Feb. 1, 2027.
