It was great to show of our new products to market and especially showing the visual impact that colour variable message signs have compared to the variable signs on offer at the moment.

The feedback that was generated from the show was great and it proved that there is a definite place for the 4 colour displays within the event and festival industry.

The Showman’s Show

… is the only outdoor show of its kind in the UK. The first Showman’s Show was held in 1984 at the Newark Showground, with only 80 or so exhibitors. Until 1989 the show was held every two years but due to demand, from exhibitors and show visitors alike, the then Lance Publications made the decision to hold the event annually. Initially it moved around the country but eventually settled at the Newbury Showground, which has been its home for the last 15 years. Today the show attracts nearly 5,000 visitors over two days and has in excess of 350 exhibitors, who show the most sophisticated structures, equipment and entertainment demanded by the event industry at large.


Colour Mobile on the Beach with Volleyball England

Colour Mobile Variable message signs had the pleasure of advertising for the event and event sponsors at the VEBT Bournemouth Volleyball Finals at the end of August 2010. It was a challenge siting the sign as the centre court was a 100m plus from the nearest entry point to the beach.

However we made it and a special thanks goes to the RNLI Lifeguards who help to remove the sign on the final day.

Volleyball England is the recognised National Governing Body for Volleyball, Beach Volleyball and Sitting Volleyball in England. Volleyball England is responsible for the development, promotion and delivery of Volleyball across England.
