HVIA is excited to officially announce the theme and focus for TruckShowX 2026, alongside the call for expressions of interest for speakers, sponsors and exhibitors of all types, including truck drive day exhibitors and trailer exhibitors.
Adam Ritzinger, HVIA’s Chief Technical Officer, says TruckShowX 2026 will build on the incredible success of its first iteration in 2024 – and, as in 2024, the key themes emerging from the recent 2025 Brisbane Truck Show, especially the potential for technology and innovation to boost productivity, efficiency and safety outcomes.
“It will again provide attendees with the opportunity to ‘deep dive’ into the game changers of the heavy vehicle industry,” he says.
“That’s why the theme for the 2026 event is ‘Driving the Future’ – it will present solutions that work, results that matter and progress that lasts.”
HVIA’s National Events Manager, Kay Marco, adds that over the two days of the event, attendees will have the chance to learn from the industry’s prime movers about how businesses are transforming through innovation and technology.
“You’ll hear about the partnerships, projects and real-world case studies focusing on transport productivity, efficiency and safety, held alongside drive-day opportunities, a technology and capability expo, and a lively social program. All centrally-located in the postcard-perfect Rydges Resort, in the New South Wales Hunter Valley,” she says.
