Lineman Pavilion

Outside contractors and linemen, without a doubt, are a vital part of the electrical construction industry. And it goes without saying the National Electrical Contractors Association could not be the successful organization it has become without the commitment that you bring to your work.

We are offering a special registration package for outside contractors. Our annual convention and trade show remains one of the highlights of the year – for NECA and the industry. It’s the perfect place to learn new ideas and reconnect with old colleagues.

What’s special about this for outside contractors?

You’ll be able to come for a weekend package that includes the opening reception, top speakers, education and trade show. If you decide to stay for the full convention or extend your weekend, you’ll be invited to a special dinner Monday night organized by NECA’s Northeast Line Chapter.

You also will have the opportunity to spend time on the trade show floor, where thousands of products, service solutions and live demos meet cutting-edge technology. Browse through the Showstopper Showcase, stop by the Product Presentation Theater, take advantage of the newly innovative TECHTOPIA pavilion, take in some education at one of the technical workshops, or catch a glimpse of an NFL game in the Sports Zone. Most important, stop by the Lineman Pavilion featuring special presentations being presented each hour on the show floor.
