About NECA Convention & Trade Show
Annual event bringing together electrical construction industry professionals for education, networking, and an extensive trade show.
NECA 2026 Convention & Trade Show
The National Electrical Contractors Association's convention and trade show runs 4–7 October 2026 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
NECA is the electrical construction industry's management event: the convention side serves contractor executives — labour relations, project management, business development — while the trade show floor covers the tools, equipment, software and materials the trade builds with. The 2026 event also marks the association's 125th anniversary.
For manufacturers selling into electrical construction, NECA reaches the contractor decision-makers who standardise what their crews buy.
