Autosport International Shortlisted for Best Trade Event Award

Autosport International, Europe’s largest motorsport exhibition, which also comprises The Aftermarket Show, has been shortlisted for three categories in the Association of Exhibition Organisers (AEO) Excellence Awards. The awards, which will be announced at the end of June, will see the event contest the Trade Show of the Year, Consumer Show of the Year and Most Original Stand for its F1 Feature.

The news comes at a time The Aftermarket Show recorded its best attendance figures yet, with more than 4500 attending the 2006 event.

Steve Coombes, The Aftermarket Show Project Manager, said: “The Aftermarket Show is an integral part in the Autosport International trade offering and we are delighted to be recognised for our achievements.

“With countless networking and business opportunities, plus the statistic that 83 per cent of visitors expected to purchase from exhibitors following the event, The Aftermarket Show is without question a leading industry event.”

The 2007 Aftermarket Show takes place from 11 to 14 January at the NEC Birmingham.
