Waterford Truck & Motor Show 2015 on horizon

The third annual Waterford Truck & Motor Show 2015 takes place this year, May 16-17 at Waterford Airport Business Park, with an in impressive line up of exhibitors and attractions.

Lovers of classic and custom built trucks are in for a real treat as up to 50 fine examples of yesteryear are coming over from England and Wales.

These beautifully restored and maintained vehicles will set the scene on the eve of the show’s opening by participating in a special convoy through Waterford city on Friday May 15.

Enthusiasts and potential customers of today’s trucks and vans will be in a position to negotiate with sales representatives from Mercedes-Benz, Scania and DAF Trucks present.

Having a major financial institution such as AIB on site will be beneficial to secure the deal if required. Military service vehicles from the Defence Forces will also be a big attraction, as will the experts of graphic design and vehicle signage who will be promoting their creative artwork.

As per past events, the Waterford Truck & Motor Show is very much family orientated, and this year is no exception. Parents will appreciate the niceties on offer at the dedicated Food Village and Farmer’s Market while the children’s playground will keep the little ones active and content.

Again, all proceeds from the event will be donated to the Waterford Hospice Movement, with sponsorship coming from Bridgestone Tyres and Topaz.

Commenting on the positive momentum generating for the 2015 Waterford Truck & Motor Show, Lynda Lonergan, on behalf of the organisers said: “We are delighted with the impact to date for this year’s show, along with our regular supporters from Britain, we have an increased interest from England and Wales.  Some members of the committee attended various shows in the UK last year and promoted our event over there.  From vehicle and trade exhibits to bouncy castles, local cuisine and artisan supplies, there will be something for everyone at the show in May.”
