2026 RTAG National Convention – In the heart of Orlando!!
We’re excited that the RTAG National Convention is headed to Orlando, FL in 2026! Hosted at the beautiful Orange County Convention Center in the Theme Park Capital of the World, this event will continue RTAG’s legacy as the premier military-to-civilian aerospace transition convention in the country.
Following our successful years hosting the convention in Fort Worth, TX and Denver, CO; RTAG is ready to thrill as we blast into the next season!
The 2026 RTAG National Convention will bring together civilian recruiters, military representatives, aviation vendors, flight schools, and industry sponsors for the most valuable networking and recruiting event of the year. With expanded space, greater visibility, and increased foot traffic, this is your opportunity to connect with the military-to-civilian aviation community like never before.

Shipping/Power/Floor options
We are working with a third-party company named Freeman that will handle the shipping of booth setup items you may need. They will also handle power requests, extra booth chairs, and flooring options if you would like. Please note that there is limited room in the 10x10 booths so please limit extra chairs to 3 at most.
Standard Booth
Included in the standard booth setup are Pipe and Drape, Table with black skirting, 2 chairs, and a waste basket. Additional items can be purchased through Freeman. Any outside items must be coordinated through Freeman.
Floor Layout
This is a question that we get often. Those that are RTAG alums know that we design and set the layout ourselves to maximize the space and ease of movement for our Veterans, and to provide the best layout we can. We do not release the floorplan until very close to the convention.
