AME International Is Hitting the Road: Our 2026 Global Event Schedule

At AME International, staying connected to our customers, partners, and industry peers has always been at the heart of what we do. In 2026, we’re proud to continue that tradition by attending some of the most important trade shows and industry events across North America and Europe.

From regional association shows to massive international exhibitions, these events give us the opportunity to share what’s new at AME, showcase our latest tools and safety solutions, and—most importantly—connect face‑to‑face with the people who rely on our products every day.

While we’ll attend several smaller events throughout the year, the shows below are the meat and potatoes of our 2026 schedule—the must‑attend events where you’ll find AME front and center.

New England Tire & Service Association (NETSA)

April 10–11, 2026 | Foxwoods Resort Casino – Connecticut

We’re kicking off our show season close to home at the NETSA Trade Show & Convention, one of the most important regional events for tire dealers and automotive service professionals in the Northeast.

NETSA brings together shop owners, managers, technicians, and suppliers for two full days of education, networking, and hands‑on product discovery. With dozens of leading vendors on the show floor and sessions focused on profitability, technology, and shop efficiency, it’s a perfect environment for meaningful conversations about real‑world challenges shops face today.

For AME, NETSA is all about relationships—connecting with independent businesses, hearing directly from customers, and sharing reliable solutions that support safe, efficient operations.

PREMA Canada Institute of Technology (PCIT)

May 31 – June 4, 2026 | Toronto, Ontario, Canada 

Education plays a huge role in the future of the automotive and commercial service industries, which is why we’re excited to be involved with PCIT. PCIT is known for focusing on professional development and technical education, especially for those entering or advancing within skilled trades and technical fields.

Events like PCIT allow AME to engage with educators, industry leaders, and students who represent the next generation of technicians and decision‑makers. It’s an opportunity to talk about safety‑first thinking, proper tooling, and how the right equipment can make demanding jobs safer and more efficient from day one.

The show emphasizes cutting‑edge innovation, with major focus areas including automation, electrification, sustainability, and workplace safety.

AME’s presence at Euro Mine Expo reflects our growing commitment to the global mining and heavy‑duty sectors, where durable tools and dependable safety solutions are non‑negotiable.
