Motability’s The Big Event goes online for 2021

The Big Event is the showcase live event for leading mobility initiative Motability Scheme… and it is to run virtually in 2021 with two days of events

Motability The Big Event

The Motability Scheme has confirmed its headline The Big Event showcase is to go ahead in 2021 despite Covid restrictions – in an action-packed two-day virtual event format.

Registration is now open for The Big Event 2021, which is held on Friday 6 and Saturday 7 August.

More than 25 leading car makers have already committed to take part, along with dozens of Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle experts and other adaptation specialists.

Aiming to showcase the latest Motability developments, experts from the UK’s leading car scheme for disabled people will be able to answer questions from virtual visitors, via live chat.

More than 630,000 disabled customers and their families currently enjoy worry-free motoring from the Motability Scheme, and organisers are hoping a refreshed format for The Big Event will help motorists, after 2020’s event wasn’t able to run due to the pandemic.

The Big Event normally takes place in physical locations across the country, and organisers hope the new virtual format will make 2021’s online event bigger and better than ever.

The event is free to join – and this, adds Motability, includes the planned live expert Speaker Sessions that will provide informative talks throughout the two-day event.
