The recent 18th annual Executive Hire Show, held at the Coventry Building Society Arena in England, saw a fully booked show floor featuring 145 stands.

The event, which brought together industry professionals from across the plant and tool hire sector, saw its highest-ever attendance, surpassing last year’s record-breaking figures. The final visitor headcount reached 2,098 hire professionals - a new record for the show. 
   
Chris Moore, publishing and events director for the Executive Hire Show, noted that the hire industry continues to thrive. “It’s fantastic to see so many exhibitors selling directly from their stands, securing orders well into 2026, and driving real business growth.”

The next show will be in February 2026.
