- British-based, global YouTube sensation, the Fully Charged SHOW confirms its return to Vancouver under the new brand Everything Electric
- Confirmed return to Vancouver Convention Centre on 6th, 7th & 8th September
- Organisers confirm they will double the exhibition size and target 20,000-25,000 attendees
- New commercial appointments confirmed to accelerate growth
- British Columbia’s clean energy provider, BC Hydro, return as key partner
After a hugely successful launch event in September 2023 which saw over 17,000 attendees, Fully Charged LIVE will return to Vancouver under the new name of Everything Electric CANADA.
This re-brand of their 6 global events enables organisers to further target the early mainstream market as they seek to attract more 20,000-25,000 attendees to their second show in Vancouver this Fall.
Organisers confirm that the event will double in size as they secure additional exhibition space in the Vancouver Convention Centre to accommodate more exhibitors, extend the test drive activation and add new features for 2024.
As well as the familiar favourites returning which include the live theatre sessions, test drives and rides, home energy advice team and commercial vehicle zone, new features for 2024 will include the Zero Carbon Kitchen and the Electric Launchpad.
The Zero Carbon Kitchen will be hosted by a group of plant-based chefs with live cookery demonstrations throughout the event while the Electric Launchpad will showcase the very latest electric vehicles coming to market.
To reflect the growth targets of the event, organisers have installed a new Canadian commercial team on the ground with Ken Bokor in Toronto joining as Sales Director supported by Duane Nickull in Vancouver in his role as Sales Manager. This Canadian commercial team, along with the broader global commercial teams, is headed up by the new Chief Commercial Officer, Carlo Zoccali.
BC Hydro, who were instrumental in bringing Fully Charged LIVE to Vancouver in 2023, will return as headline sponsor of Everything Electric CANADA.
Fully Charged’s CEO Dan Caesar commented:
“We were blown away by the welcome we received in Vancouver in 2023 with the event exceeding expectations in terms of visitor numbers but also the universally positive feedback we received. Returning under our new umbrella of ‘Everything Electric’ we are confident that this event will grow significantly as we target both the early adopters but also the early mainstream. Visitors can expect more home energy and electric vehicle exhibits, a greatly extended test drive and ride activation, more live theater sessions and some fantastic new features.
We are delighted to be welcoming back BC Hydro as headline sponsor for a second year and are excited to work as partners over the coming months. It was BC Hydro’s invitation, along with their support as headline sponsor, that enabled us to bring our event to Canada in 2023, and cement our position in the Canadian calendar for years to come.“
BC Hydro added,
“Last year’s Fully Charged LIVE in Vancouver was a ground breaking display of what clean energy can do, and we’re proud to once again support its return to B.C. with Everything Electric CANADA this fall,”
says Chris O’Riley, President and CEO of BC Hydro.
“Everything Electric CANADA will demonstrate the latest in electrification – from home energy to electric vehicles, and will be an innovative experience for anyone looking for ways to manage their energy footprint and check out some of the latest clean energy technologies, concepts and ideas.”
