FIT SHOW PREVIEW
Does Your
Face FIT?
Be the Face of The FIT Show.
This year we are giving the
FIT Show visitors an amazing
opportunity to really be a
part of the show. Taking full
advantage of our award winning campaign the winners
will walk away the promotion
opportunity of the year.
We are looking for dedicated
manufacturers and installers who
are true representatives of the
industry. We will be encouraging
you to send us ‘selfies’ – a photo
taken of yourself usually on your
mobile phone. We want to see
you in your work environment,
but with an exciting movie twist,
think action, think comedy, think
Hollywood.
After you have uploaded your
selfies to our Twitter and Facebook page The FIT Show’s expert
panel will judge the entries.
The winner will then have their
selfie recreated by a
professional photographer and turned into a
real life advert that will
feature in the industries
leading magazines. On
top of this they will receive gala dinner tickets
and if that’s not enough,
their advert will feature
as the front cover of the
FIT Show exhibition
guide.
The competition will
run from February 10th
– March 10th so make
sure you’re following us
on Twitter and Facebook
today to get involved.

Park yourself at The FIT Show,
there’s plenty of room
With an anticipated huge
demand to attend this
year’s FIT Show, the organisers have announced that
they have added a significant number of additional
car parking spaces available for visitors to the UK’s
only fabricator and installer
trade show.
The huge number of visitors
keen to attend last April’s inaugural FIT Show overwhelmed
Telford’s car parking, initially
taking over the large number of
spaces surrounding the International Centre, home of The FIT
Show, and then progressively filling spaces throughout the town
centre. It therefore became a priority to ensure the situation was
corrected for the 2014 event.
Onsite parking at the Telford
International Centre this year
will be extended by some 600
spaces. Increased by 56% to approximately 2000 spaces, parking
will be extended into the arena
adjacent to the centre, and with
alternative parking made available for commercial vehicles, this
has freed up yet more spaces for
exhibition visitors.
There has also been a new multi
storey car park built in the retail
A new multi storey car park adjacent to Telford
International Centre will offer 700 more parking
spaces, in addition to a further 600 spaces
surrounding the Centre itself.
development adjacent to the TIC
adding a further 700 extra spaces
close to the main entrance of The
FIT Show.
Commenting on the increase
in parking availability, FIT Show
Managing Director Paul Godwin
had this to say:
“We understand after seeking
feedback following last year’s
show that we needed to increase
the amount of parking spaces
made available at the FIT Show.
We want all of this year’s visitors
to find it easy to locate a space
so that they can spend their time
enjoying the FIT Show instead of
seeking out a parking space.”
Additional car parking marshals
will also be available to ensure
and efficient flow of traffic, as
well as clear visitor guides to all
parking facilities. “In a sense it
was a good problem to have as
it was due to the enthusiasm of
people attending,” added Paul.
“But we want every visitor to
enjoy the convenience of parking
within a short walk to the door
and for free and we have totally
overhauled the parking arrangement to make sure this happens
at The International Centre in
June.”
