2026 TAB Show Exhibit Hall: A Front-Row Seat to Broadcasting’s Future

- 100+ Leading Industry Vendors On Tap to Showcase Leading Tech

For many attendees, the TAB Show's educational sessions and networking opportunities are reason enough to make the trip. But every year, one of the most valuable experiences at what many call a "mini-NAB" can be found just outside the meeting rooms: the trade show floor.

With more than 100 exhibiting companies representing every corner of the broadcast business, the 2026 TAB Show Aug. 5-6 in Round Rock offers broadcasters from Texas and surrounding states a unique opportunity to explore the technologies, services, and partnerships that are shaping the future of radio and television.

The event is widely recognized for its affordability, efficiency and emphasis on practical insights for broadcast engineers and technologists, multimedia marketing teams and leaders, drawing about 1,200 delegates from Texas and beyond. Full registration costs $115 and rooms at the host hotel just $235/night. Parking is free.

This year's exhibit hall features a remarkable cross-section of leading industry vendors.

Broadcasters looking to modernize their facilities or upgrade technical operations will find solutions from companies such as BeckTV, ERI (Electronics Research, Inc.), Nautel, Rohde & Schwarz, Broadcast Depot, Broadcasters General Store, and American Amplifier Technologies. These firms provide everything from transmission systems and RF infrastructure to studio design, equipment integration, and technical support.

For television operators, exhibitors including Sony, Ross Video, Blackmagic Design, AJA Video Systems, Cartoni, CueScript, MultiDyne, and Cobalt Digital will showcase advances in production, workflow, automation, and content delivery technologies. These tools help stations produce higher-quality content while improving efficiency and flexibility in increasingly complex production environments.

Radio broadcasters will discover solutions designed to enhance programming, streamline operations, and extend audience engagement across multiple platforms. Companies such as Aiir, RCS, Tieline, Texas State Networks, and WideOrbit provide technologies that support everything from content management and remote broadcasting to traffic systems, digital distribution, and revenue generation.

The exhibit hall also reflects the industry's growing emphasis on digital and multi-platform delivery. Vendors including Bitcentral, Telestream, Osprey Video, Teradek, and Ateme are helping broadcasters expand beyond traditional over-the-air distribution through streaming, IP-based workflows, cloud technologies, and digital content management solutions.

Public safety and operational resilience remain central to broadcasters' mission, and exhibitors such as Digital Alert Systems, D2D Technologies, Clear-Com, and Coast to Coast Tower Service demonstrate the technologies and services that help stations remain reliable when communities need them most. Whether supporting emergency alerting, critical communications, tower maintenance, or disaster preparedness, these companies play an essential role in keeping stations on the air.

Broadcasters can explore new technologies, ask detailed questions, plan new capital projects and troubleshoot concerns in a personal, hands-on experience.

The trade show is more than a collection of exhibits. It is a snapshot of where broadcasting is headed-and a reminder that Texas broadcasters have access to some of the most innovative technologies and brightest minds in the industry, all under one roof at the TAB Show.
