The 71st annual Off-the-Road (OTR) Tire Conference, hosted by the Tire Industry Association (TIA) on February 18-21, 2026, at the Rosen Shingle Creek Orlando in Orlando, Florida, is the premier global earthmover and construction tire industry event. The 2025 conference attracted over 500 people from 35 states and 12 countries representing manufacturers, suppliers, retreaders, and tire dealers who service the largest tires on earth.

The OTR Tire Conference promises to be an exceptional gathering for professionals in the OTR tire industry. As one of the industry’s most anticipated events, attendees can expect a combination of educational sessions, networking opportunities, and an interactive tabletop display of products and services.

If you’re preparing to attend, here’s a closer look at what awaits you.

ENGAGING EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS

One of the core elements of the OTR Tire Conference is its comprehensive slate of educational sessions. These sessions are designed to address the most pressing topics in the OTR tire industry, providing attendees with critical insights and actionable knowledge. Industry experts will share their perspectives on the latest technological advancements, legislative updates, and what businesses must do to remain competitive in a rapidly changing landscape.

The daily general sessions focus on different areas to address topics that appeal to the diverse array of companies in attendance.

Wednesday: Maximizing Growth Through Training

TIA is the global leader in earthmover tire service technician training and certification. With a network of in-house and industry experts available, Wednesday’s general session focuses on specific safety procedures and guidelines that impact everyone in the audience. Servicing the largest tires and wheels requires specialized training, tools, and equipment. The presentations articulate the steps that must be taken to maximize safety and performance growth.

Thursday’s Focus: Industry Insight

The annual economic forecast highlights Thursday and then continues with other topics specific to the OTR tire industry as a whole. The economic forecast looks at what attendees can expect in the construction and mining industries since they are the main customers of the OTR tire and retreading industries. Other industry-specific sessions are also included to provide insight into the earthmover and construction tire markets.

Friday’s Focus: Professional Development

Professional development is a key component of organizational success. Friday’s presentations focus on how everyone can improve their performance and create additional value for their companies and customers. At the end of the session, a motivational speaker delivers an inspirational message, highlighting the session’s key takeaways.

INTERACTIVE TABLETOP DISPLAYS

No TIA OTR Tire Conference would be complete without the sponsored tabletop displays. The two tabletop display periods, Wednesday evening and Friday afternoon, provide one-stop shopping for earthmover and construction tire service, sales, repair, and retreading in a relaxed, non-pressure environment.

These displays also offer a unique opportunity to explore companies’ products, technologies, and services.  You can speak directly with suppliers and manufacturers, ask questions, and gain deeper insight into how these innovations can help address your specific challenges.

The TIA OTR Tire Conference is not a trade show. To participate, you must register for the full conference. Tabletops are a benefit of conference sponsorship and are not sold separately.

NETWORKING AND LEISURE

Beyond its educational programming, the OTR Tire Conference is a prime opportunity to connect with other professionals in the field. Networking is one key benefit of attending, and the conference ensures plenty of opportunities to engage with industry peers in both formal and informal settings.

Receptions and leisure activities will provide a more relaxed atmosphere for networking and building relationships. These social events are enjoyable and instrumental in fostering valuable connections leading to future business collaborations and partnerships.
