The organisers of the Commercial Vehicle Show have announced the 2021 event will take place on 8-10 June 2021 at the NEC in Birmingham, moving from its traditional April date in a bid to deliver the best possible Show in the safest environment.
In light of the ongoing disruption and uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic regarding the holding of events in the UK, the opportunity to move to a summer date for 2021 aims to provide more certainty to both exhibitors and visitors, offering more time to plan and prepare with confidence their attendance at the Show.
The Commercial Vehicle Show team has been developing a programme for the road transport event, working closely with partners the Institute of Road Transport Engineers (IRTE), the Road Haulage Association (RHA) and the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).
Murray Ellis, Show Director, said: “The last year has shown the resilience and determination of everyone involved in the road transport sector. We are confident the 2021 Commercial Vehicle Show will provide the ideal platform for companies to launch and promote their products and services alongside all of the networking opportunities that the Show is renowned for amongst exhibitors and visitors alike.
“We have taken the opportunity to reschedule the 2021 Show to the Summer, which will ensure we can deliver the best possible event for our industry.”
