Automechanika Birmingham has won two industry awards for the successful launch of the U.K.’s leading exhibition for the automotive aftermarket and supply chain in 2016.
Winning two accolades at the 11th Exhibition News Awards, on Thursday, March 30, the Automechanika Birmingham team took to the stage to collect the awards for expanding the Automechanika brand and for the best U.K. trade show newcomer. Automechanika Birmingham was the only event to win two awards.
The 2016 show was sold out in six months before the doors opened and welcomed more than 12,000 visitors through the doors to see more than 550 exhibitors from the aftermarket and supply chain.
Simon Albert, event director, said, “The awards are a testament to the hard work and support of our exhibitors, visitors, partners and the event team. We’d like to thank everyone involved in making Automechanika Birmingham happen last year but now our focus is fully on 2017, where we have grown from three to five halls with over 800 exhibitors, introduced a new dedicated supply chain zone, new live demonstrations, more expert speakers and longer opening times! We look forward to welcoming everyone from 6-8 June 2017 at the NEC.”
