The next biennial Plantworx construction equipment show in England will be held 15-17 June, 2021 at East of England Arena and Events Centre in Peterborough.

Stand sales for exhibitors are expected to be open just after East, according to Plantworx event director Simon Frere-Cook. “With so much importance being attached to the working demonstrations we have undertaken an extensive survey of the grounds at the East of England Arena so that we can spread the demonstration plots and thus improve the footfall throughout the site. During the winter we have also been improving the website and streamlining our procedures so that all will be ready for when stand sales start after Easter.”

The UK’s Construction Equipment Association (CEA) said the 2021 event is predicted to attract more than 450 exhibitors from the world’s leading machine manufacturers, suppliers and service providers. Over the three-day event, visitors can expect to see the very latest in technological advancements and innovations which will impact on the future of construction.

The show included many real-site conditions where machines are put the test, explained Rob Oliver, chief executive of the CEA. “Plantworx 2021 promises to be the best yet. At an established exhibition venue, great support from our loyal exhibitors, and a targeted visitor programme, we are confident of delivering, once again, a memorable and valuable experience.”

This year, the show is teaming up with the CEA for an awards evening on 11 June and planning a technology conference and showcase event at the Manufacturing Technology Centre in Coventry in November. “It’s all part of our commitment to providing a rolling programme for the audience of construction professionals to receive the information and inspiration to grow their business,” said Oliver.
