Following the success of the last two events, ‘Going Electric’ returns this July (28th) from 10am to 4pm to showcase all things electric.
The last two years have generated a real buzz with 1,000 visitors exploring over 40 exhibition stands.
New location
2024 is set to be bigger and better as it moves to Newport Quayside and the neighbouring Riverside Centre to host the ever-popular day of talks.
Going Electric – Island’s largest Electric Transport and Green Technology show – gives Islanders the opportunity to explore the latest electric cars, vans, bikes, solar panels, heat pumps, charging solutions and much more. It also features talks from leading experts on many aspects of the electric revolution and sustainable living.
Free entry
This free-to-attend event brings together the Island’s leading automotive dealers, showcasing MG, Mercedes, Peugeot. Ford, Volvo, Hyundai, VW, Mazda, Cupra, Skoda, KIA and Toyota with many with more still to be announced.
The highly popular ‘Bike Zone’ will enable visitors to see and test ride the latest electric bikes. A dedicated ‘Meet the owner’ area provides the perfect opportunity to meet EV owners and ask questions about their day-to-day use of EV’s and how they fit into their lives.
