Work Truck Week, North America’s largest work truck event, is March 7–10, 2023, at Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. Green Truck Summit is March 7, educational sessions run March 7–9, and the Work Truck Show exhibit hall is open March 8–10.

“One of the great things about Work Truck Week is not only can you see the latest commercial vehicles, equipment, and technology, but you can also try much of it for yourself,” says Kevin Koester, NTEA managing director. “If you want to drive the latest medium-duty trucks or zero-emissions commercial vehicles, you can walk outside the exhibit hall to Ride & Drive. In an hour, you can accomplish what would otherwise take weeks or months of planning.”
