The Motorcycle Show – Toronto Has a New Home and New Show Dates For 2014
Toronto, ON –
With the success of The Motorcycle Shows seven city 2013 show series behind
us, Power Sport Services (PSS) is now focused on the 2014 show season. Bob Ramsay, President
of Power Sport Services (PSS) is pleased to announce that Ontario’s biggest motorcycle
manufacturers’ show “The Motorcycle Show – Toronto” is moving both the location and date of
its next Toronto show to the Direct Energy Centre throughout the weekend of February 21 to
February 23, 2014.
“One of the Toronto Show’s trademarks has been its ability to attract an impressive display of
new motorcycles, scooters and ATVs each year at the show, commented Ramsay, who added
that PSS believes moving the motorcycle show to the Direct Energy Centre is the appropriate
next step in building on the future of the Toronto show.”
The Motorcycle Shows national cross-Canada seven city tour features hundreds of new
motorcycles, a wide-range of exciting exhibits and features, all under one roof. PSS is always
looking for imaginative ways to provide more value for consumers and exhibitors of the shows
and we believe the change in location and date are the perfect combination in our plans to
expand and build on existing elements at the Toronto Show.
Partnering with the Direct Energy Center, located in downtown Toronto, at Exhibition Place, will
give PSS that flexibility. Direct Energy Center is owned and managed by the City of Toro nto and
is Canada’s largest exhibition and convention facility with over I million square feet of exhibit
space.
Direct Energy Centre is easily accessible to both exhibitors and visitors. It is accessible by local
transit streetcars and commuter trains which provide links to the entire Greater Toronto
Metropolitan area as well as over 7,000 parking spaces across the Exhibition Place site, including
1, 300 parking spaces in the Direct Energy Centre indoor parking garage.
