2025 TAB Show Agenda Set, Registration Discount Expires This Week!

posted on 6.16.2025

- Aug. 6-7 Celebration at Kalahari Resorts & Conventions

The agenda for the 2025 TAB Show Aug. 6-7 is set, with 32 programs across four tracks of programming for station teams, including marketing executives, engineers and technicians, Radio programmers and station managers.

The content offerings complement the 125-booth trade show featuring the broadcast industry's top vendors.

Combined with the $105 registration fee for member stations and hotel rooms discounted to $225/night at Kalahari, the 2025 TAB Show is the best value for U.S. broadcasters seeking actionable content to increase revenue and reduce costs while exploring the latest studio and tower gear.

Non-member stations can attend for $195.

All registration fees increase June 21. Additional fees are required for the Aug. 6 Golf Tournament, Golden Mic Club Dinner and closing night Awards Gala.

Attendees also can bring along their spouses or families to enjoy one last summer splash at Kalahari's expanded outdoor water park and adventure river, indoor arcades and adults-only pool and swim/walk-up bar.

TAB has secured a rate of $107/night at the overflow hotel, La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Round Rock.
