People may attend the trucking show and the listening session free of charge, if they pre-register online with the MATS organizer at http://truckingshow.com/attendee/attendee-registration. . Attendees pre-registering must print out their confirmation page after registering and present it at the Kentucky Exposition Center door to be admitted free.
