Moncton, NB – In just a few weeks, the Atlantic Truck Show will be moving into the Moncton Coliseum with gleaming displays of the latest trucks, trailers, and big iron on today’s market. Presented by the Atlantic Provinces Trucking Association, the Atlantic Truck Show will take place June 7 & 8 and is the largest event of its kind east of Montreal.
The Atlantic Truck Show draws visitors from throughout New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and beyond. Held every two years, the event attracts big crowds, with more than 12,000 attendees taking part in the most recent edition in 2017.
“Things have been busy with planning and preparation for this year’s event,” said Mark Cusack, National Show Manager. “With booth space sold out, there are major industry players getting ready to debut their latest and greatest products. We’ve renewed our focus on showcasing vocational trucks, so visitors can expect a fresh look at their options for all different sectors of the transportation industry – not just highway vehicles.”
This year’s show will feature a diverse range of products, from transmissions and suspensions, to trucks and bodies – including a variety of innovative power solutions, cargo management systems, and vocational equipment.
