MAX 2026 – USA

The Manufacturing & Automation eXchange (MAX) is a dynamic new industry event debuting March 25–26, 2026 at the Music City Center in Nashville, Tennessee, created by BNP Media by unifying several leading manufacturing trade shows into one comprehensive platform.
This inaugural MAX brings together the strengths of The ASSEMBLY Show South, The Quality Show, and Adhesives in Action, plus elements from Industrial Safety and Packaging Strategies, offering a cross‑disciplinary experience that reflects the interconnected nature of modern manufacturing. Attendees — including plant managers, engineers, automation specialists, quality leaders and operations executives — will find live, hands‑on demonstrations, interactive exhibits, networking opportunities and expert presentations focused on real‑world problems and practical solutions across assembly, quality, bonding, safety and broader automation technology.
This format helps manufacturers see innovation in action, engage with peers and suppliers, and shape what’s next in digital and automated production — all with free expo access and optional premium experiences for deeper learning.
