MOVE London is a mobility event, where
‘disruptive technology and innovation
drive much-needed change’. It began in
October 2017, and was formed in order
to tackle issues like sustainability and
congestion in the mobility industry,
whilst also looking at changes in the
industry, like ride-sharing apps, electric
vehicles and more.
Since then, the show has grown rapidly,
going from 2,800 visitors and 400
speakers in 2018, to 5,000 visitors and
800 speakers in 2019.
The key features of the event are the 16
stages (expanding from the nine theatres
at 2018’s event), which host a range
of speakers and include the Pitching
Theatre – a space where start-ups have 10
minutes to pitch their ideas, in the hope
of making it to the keynote stage later on
in the event.
What’s next?
With MOVE events already taking place
in Austin, Texas and Singapore, MOVE
plans to continue this global expansion,
whilst also nurturing and growing the
London event. The event also plans to
tackle new issues within the mobility
industry as they arise.
The London Classic Car Show is an
international event for road and race cars
across the UK and Europe. Organised by
Brand Events, it is now in its sixth year,
and has moved to Olympia London.
Event director, Bas Bungish, said:
“Our move to Olympia London allows
us to offer an improved and accessible
premium platform for our valued
exhibitors, and an even better experience
for those travelling from across the UK,
Europe and around the globe to view and
purchase these incredible cars.”
The 2020 event marks the anniversary
of a number of significant events within
the motoring industry. Each anniversary
will have its own interactive exhibit.
Also featuring is ‘Car Stories’ – a series
of live lectures on six classic or historic
motorsport cars. Presented by special
guests from the industry, including
designers, racing drivers and owners,
visitors will have the opportunity to
learn the importance of each car.
What’s next?
Bungish said: “The move to Olympia
is very exciting and gives us the
opportunity to grow and develop the
show in the coming years. As part of this,
we would like to grow the international
nature and appeal of the show.”
The Scottish Caravan, Motorhome and
Holiday Home Show’s aim is to bring the
‘biggest brands, latest models and widest
selection of caravans and motorhomes
together’, and help attendees make the
best decision when selecting a caravan,
motorhome or holiday home.
Organised by QD Events, features
at the show include lessons and live
demonstrations as well as the new
Campervan Hall, the Accessory
Superstore, Free Towing Manoeuvring
lessons from the Caravan and
Motorhomes Club, and the Vango
Camping Village. The 2020 anticipates
a similar attendance to the 2019 show,
which saw 23,000 visitors.
What’s next?
Group show director, Darren Brechin
said: “We are considering the possibility
of adapting our current model into
different regions along with reviewing
existing offerings and opportunities
based on feedback from the industry and
consumers to ensure we deliver exactly
what our consumers want.”
