IIADA Expo, Cocktail Reception and Awards Program

Get ready for a full-throttle day of connection, innovation, and celebration at the 2025 IIADA Expo — Indiana’s premier gathering of independent auto dealers and industry leaders!

Hosted at the iconic Dallara IndyCar Factory, just steps from the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway, this event is more than a conference — it’s an experience. You’ll kick off the day with breakfast and vendor networking, then dive into high-impact education sessions, hands-on insights, and expert panels designed to fuel your business forward.

After a day of learning and exploring, shift gears into celebration mode with our Cocktail Reception & Awards Ceremony. Enjoy delicious food, unlimited drinks, and an atmosphere charged with energy as we honor the dealers, teams, and partners who are driving the industry forward.

Whether you’re a [seasoned dealer], a [first-time attendee], or a [vendor ready to showcase your products], the 2025 IIADA Expo is your chance to connect, collaborate, and celebrate with the best in the business.

This is the place to be — and we saved you a seat.
