Student Day at Plantworx Construction Exhibition

Addressing the Skills Gap

Thursday 15 June 8:30am – 4:00pm

Pupils, students, and graduates are invited to attend Plantworx on the last day of the event (Thursday 15 June, East of England Arena, Peterborough). Parents, grandparents, and guardians are also welcome to bring their children along to experience a working construction show first-hand. There is no minimum age limit on Student Day. Young people visiting the show will get a better understanding of the UK construction industry, plant equipment, new technologies, and all that they can offer.  The children will also learn how the equipment on display helps to build infrastructure around the country. School parties and other attending youngsters will be invited to follow the Plantworx Student Trail, where they will be encouraged to visit participating exhibitor stands, answer questions and take part in challenges! The Student Trail aims to address the skills shortage and encourage more youngsters into the construction equipment industry.  The 5th biennial Plantworx Construction Machinery Exhibition, hosted by the CEA (Construction Equipment Association), is taking place at the East of England Arena in Peterborough from 13-15 June 2023. The largest working construction event this year is expecting more than 15,000 visitors over the three days of the show.  The event is expected to host over 300 exhibitors. Parent, student and child registration is free... For further details contact louise.carney@plantworx.co.uk
