Mayor Seeks Grand Exhibit for the Great Exhibition

The successful key exhibitor will receive a promotional branded package across the Great Exhibition, an award presentation, and the opportunity to meet the Mayor, and other dignitaries on the day.

Plans are now forging ahead for the Great Exhibition of Lincolnshire, following the announcement of its launch by the Greater Lincolnshire Mayor, Dame Andrea Jenkyns.

As a result, this prestigious event offers a high-profile platform for Lincolnshire to promote its businesses, investment, and trade opportunities. The event is expected to attract national attention, and draw international investors. Overall, it will be a grand showcase celebrating all that Lincolnshire has to offer.

In addition, there’s a chance for one of our successful businesses to provide a Grand Exhibit. This will be the centrepiece at the entrance of the Great Exhibition.

The exhibit will be of significant scale, visual impact, and dimensions to create interest in the Central Hall of the Epic Centre, Lincolnshire Showground. Importantly, it must reflect the aspirations of Greater Lincolnshire and align with one or more of the three core themes of the Great Exhibition: Innovation, Investment, and Trade.

Dame Andrea Jenkyns stated:

“I pledged to bring the Great Exhibition to Lincolnshire and am delighted to now be creating that vision. I’m establishing a major platform to showcase the world-class tech, innovation, design, manufacturers, and producers within our businesses and linking them up with investors and trade opportunities. This is sure to be a visual spectacle, and we want our businesses to step forward and propose a show-stopping grand exhibit.”

To be eligible, businesses must be located within Greater Lincolnshire. They must also be available to undertake installation on Tuesday 21st October. The exhibition will be held on Wednesday 22nd October, with deinstallation on Thursday 23rd October.

When applying, businesses should include an overview of the proposal. They should also include how it links to the Great Exhibition themes, along with images or design work. The entries close on Friday, 5th September. The winner will notified by Friday, 12th September.

The winner will receive the branded package, the presentation and the meeting with the Mayor and key dignitaries.
