Advanced booking
Advanced Engineering has revealed that its space has almost sold out for its 2024 edition, mainly due to a strong re-booking rate at last year’s event.
The exhibition – which is the largest annual gathering of engineering and manufacturing professionals – will return to the NEC for its 15th edition this October. Around 80 per cent of stand space was sold to rebookers from the 2023 edition, with the last few stands now remaining for 2024.
“Shows like this are absolutely vital because it is an opportunity to network and to learn from each other,” says Stephen Phipson CBE, chief executive of manufacturers’ organisation Make UK. “Advanced Engineering is an opportunity to think of something or see something you never thought would happen, and a sense of community and collaboration that is very important for our industry.”
Advanced Engineering hosts a wide portfolio of engineering brands across the automotive, aerospace, defence, rail, marine, medical, electrical digitalisation and composites sectors of engineering. This year, the exhibition expects to welcome 8800 visitors to see over 400 exhibitors, with a particular focus on innovation and sustainability as highlighted by the Innovation and Sustainability Trails at this year’s show.
Smart Display is a regular exhibition stand installer at Advanced Engineering, and is taking on new clients for 2024 in addition to its regular installations.
“Advanced Engineering is going from strength to strength, and it’s great to hear that exhibition space has almost sold out so far ahead of the show,” says Smart Display’s sales manager Ben Rose. “Now is the perfect time for exhibitors who have booked their space to talk to us about how we can create an exhibition stand that stands out from the competition and drives footfall to your business. As the industry’s trusted partner, we can maximise the potential of your space with clever storage solutions, hanging banners, lighting features and audio-visual elements and ensure that you maximise the potential of your exhibition.”
