| About Us : |
Organising Transport Shows since 1971 with hundreds taking place over 40 years Geoff and Linda have gained a reputation amongst vehicle owners across the UK for their dedication and commitment they put into their events with Sandwell now in its 32nd year and Weston Park 23 years and Trentham 21 years. Our Shows could not take place without the support of both exhibitors and traders. Our 2010 programme is now available and following a successful season in 2009 we once again bring together all our popular events at some of the Midlands Top Venues. Unfortunately we will no longer be running the Sheffield Festival of Transport but are back after a 10 year break with our Classic Car and Transport Show at Shugborough Hall, Nr. Stafford - one not to be missed. Also following our success last year at Arbury Hall, Nuneaton, we will again be here this year. We very much look forward to seeing you again throughout 2010 and once again thank you all for your continued support. |
