Don’t really want to turn it into a which manufactures are/aren’t going thread but let’s face it who’s going to look at tractors anywhere? If you where considering a new tractor you’d call the dealer and get a demo in the yard first as last.

Whose going to see anything then really is it?
What suits one maybe NO interest to another ??

I’ve been to a lot of shows in my time:oops: and from experience nearly every major tractor manufacturer who takes a machine worth look at finds its self swamped with students taking selfies and snap chatting! So the actual buyer walks on by, what’s the point in spending tens of thousands on a show when they’ll get just as much custom from sending out flyers and giving demos!

Personally most shows are firstly about a day off/out, but more importantly about meeting new contacts, suppliers, and researching new technologies and developments in the industry.

But like you say everyone will have their own reasons for going or not as the case me be. (y)

I'm hoping to get stranded in Birmingham Tuesday night. Only going for day.
We can sort you if you get stuck, I think we have a couple of triple rooms with only 2 in each , we could do you a good rate:p.

We are going both days but leaving early on Tuesday to go see a machine demo from a firm who aren’t exhibiting. Some of our party are going to visit another firm who won’t be there on the Thursday.

McCormick are going as I’ve had a flyer with offer of coffee, so not quite correct that there’s no food or drink in the halls.
