Euro Bus Expo 2008 almost fully sold out

April 25, 2008

The latest sales figures released by the organisers of Euro Bus Expo 2008 confirm that the exhibition is already very close to being fully sold out, despite being more than six months away from the opening of the show in November.

With less than 5% of stand space yet to be allocated, Euro Bus Expo (EBE08) is proving to be a hit with Exhibitors old and new, with sales significantly ahead of the equivalent point in 2006 when the highly successful inaugural show was staged. The three day biennial trade-only event will take place at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) on 4-6th November 2008.

"Space sales continue to exceed all expectations", said EBE 08 Show Director, Mark Griffin. "We have just one vehicle stand now left, with availability on open/minibus sites now limited to just five spaces. Our newly located Technology Zone is nearly fully subscribed too. These sites, plus the 30 or so remaining shell sites which are normally snapped up in the immediate show run up, are available on a ´first come first served basis´ so I would encourage any potential Exhibitor not to risk disappointment by leaving their bookings to the last minute."

The news comes in the week that all organizations exhibiting at EBE08 will be receiving their Exhibitor manuals which, amongst a wealth of other show related information, includes details of a pan European visitor marketing campaign which begins in earnest next month. On-line registration via the show website also goes live from May 1st.

"With a host of exciting show-related announcements to made public over the coming months, the build up to the largest dedicated show for the bus, coach and technology sectors anywhere in Europe this year is just beginning", said Mark Griffin.
