The Global Titanium Industry Converges in Las Vegas
For over four decades, TITANIUM USA has stood as the world’s premier event dedicated exclusively to the titanium metal industry. The 42nd annual conference, organized and hosted by the International Titanium Association (ITA), returns in 2026 with a move to Las Vegas, promising three days of high-level networking, technical insight, and market intelligence.
Event Details and Location
TITANIUM USA 2026 is scheduled for October 4–6, 2026, at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada. The conference brings together over 800 senior executives—CEOs, Presidents, and Directors—from more than 30 countries, alongside 100 exhibitors spanning the full titanium value chain.
A Gathering of Industry Leaders
The event is produced by the International Titanium Association, the global trade association representing the world’s primary titanium metal producers who together account for over 90% of worldwide titanium production. Since 1984, the ITA’s mission has been to promote and support the use of titanium metal in new and existing applications, connecting the public with specialists from across the globe who offer sales and technical assistance.
ITA’s international membership comprises over 150 organizations and more than 1,500 professionals involved in producing, fabricating, or consuming titanium metal. Delegates consistently describe TITANIUM USA as the most economical event they attend each year—a place where they can meet with all their suppliers under one roof for the cost of a single airline ticket.
