NADCA Die Casting Congress & Tabletop 2027
About NADCA Die Casting Congress & Tabletop
An event for die casting industry professionals featuring exhibits and education on advanced die casting technologies.
NADCA Die Casting Congress & Exposition 2027
The 2027 Die Casting Congress & Exposition runs Monday, October 18 to Wednesday, October 20, 2027 at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana.
What it is
The Congress is the North American Die Casting Association's (NADCA) technical conference for the die casting industry. NADCA runs it in two formats — a Congress & Exposition with a full exhibit hall, and a Congress & Tabletop with a smaller tabletop exhibit. 2026's meeting in Grand Rapids was a Congress & Tabletop; 2027 is a Congress & Exposition.
NADCA is the trade association for die casters and their suppliers, with members from more than 750 companies according to the association. Its work covers technical research, education, sustainability and government affairs for an industry whose castings, NADCA says, are used in 90% of finished products.
Practical notes
- NADCA's event page directs exhibitors to a separate show website for booth reservations and show information.
- The association's other recurring meetings include the Die Casting Executive Conference (Scottsdale, Arizona, February 2027) and a Plant Management Conference; they are separate events from the Congress.
