Title: Fleetwood Transport Festival Post by: Thotos on January 24, 2008, 11:30:52 PM The following was sent by email:
Dear Sir/Madam My name is Lawrence and I'd just like to say a few words about our event. The committee of the Fleetwood Transport Festival (known locally as "Tram Sunday") cordially invite you, your members and, if you wish your, club along with all of your vehicles to attend the 2008 event which will be held on 20th July, 2008 (3rd Sunday of July each year). Our event, now entering its 24th year, is particularly unique as it is set in the historic town centre roads rather than on a muddy field. Fleetwood is a seaside location very close to Blackpool, Lancashire, and the event not only attracts enthusiasts but a 30,000-strong, wide variety of visitors including young families - introducing them to the joys that classic vehicles can bring. We have a HUGE number of trade stands at the event which runs from 10am until 4pm. The event currently attracts around 60 buses, 180 cars, 20-30 motorbikes and a wide variety of other specialist and exciting vehicles (last year this included a monster truck), however we would like your help with building on this figure!! Attendance as an exhibitor or a visitor is entirely FREE. All exhibitors are presented with a commemorative plaque. Please contact me for entry forms or if you have any questions. We like to think that the event is fairly club friendly due to the fact that it involves the whole family, we have ample space, there are plenty of shops and caf?s and the fact that we are used to accommodating clubs together. Please contact me if you would like to bring a club stand. (I have a typed piece formatted for BB Code forums if you would like that). Thank you, Lawrence Weetman www.fleetwoodtransportfestival.co.uk (http://www.fleetwoodtransportfestival.co.uk) Title: Re: Fleetwood Transport Festival Post by: simon131 on January 25, 2008, 06:32:47 AM Sounds interesting Theo 8) Are we going? ;)? :D
It's a bit of a trek for us 'Southern Softies' isn't it, but might be worth the trip. Could combine it with a trip to Blackpool as I've never been there either. Doesn't it always rain up north?? :D :D Title: Re: Fleetwood Transport Festival Post by: nigel131sport on January 26, 2008, 04:22:14 PM come on "up north" lads you will be very welcome the orange boys will be going,but bring an umbrella just in case!!! :)
