The Ultimate Show
15 August 2020
The Ultimate Show is a brand new and exciting automotive show which is launching in Liverpool on Saturday 15 August 2020.
The event will have a selection of the best stance, performance and modified vehicles on display along with traders showcasing their products along with live entertainment, giveaways. It will also have the show awards for some of the best vehicles on display towards the end of the event.
Show organiser Ryan Taylor commented, “After a number of years organising car events throughout the North-West I thought it was time to up the game and bring a professional automotive to the city of Liverpool. The city hasn’t hosted an event of this type before and what a place to bring The Ultimate Show too. After a number of meetings with the ACC Exhibition Centre it felt the perfect venue to work with”
“We already have a large amount of interest from the car industry considering the event isn’t till 2020, with a mixture of both car enthusiasts and general public already confirming their attendance”
