Cleveland, OH (November 6, 2013) — The countdown for the Cleveland Auto Show’s opening day at the I-X Center is already underway – mark your calendars for March 1 through March 9, 2014.
In addition to announcing the 2014 Show dates, the Greater Cleveland Automobile Dealers’ Association (GCADA), the organization that owns and manages the Cleveland Auto Show, also announced that it is launching a new website for the Show. While totally redesigned, the new website can still be accessed at www.clevelandautoshow.com.
“The number one goal of the new website is to make it more easily accessible from any kind of device. It’s compatible with smartphones, iPads or any other tablets, as well as computers,” says Ed Babcock, chairman of the 2014 Cleveland Auto Show and owner of the Junction Auto Family dealerships in Chardon. “The layout has been streamlined, making it easier than ever to find information on upcoming events, ticket information and driving directions. You’ll also find details on all of our special attractions, as well as the vehicles and times for Ride-N-Drive events, as soon as the information becomes available.
“Our website is the one place you can find all the information you need about the 2014 Cleveland Auto Show. It’s not just a car show, it’s an event.”
As one of the largest auto shows in the nation, the Cleveland Auto Show always features the very best vehicles, concepts and displays from vehicle manufacturers across the globe.
“We’re expecting an outstanding show this year, with more interactive displays and Ride-N-Drives than ever before,” says Babcock. “There is so much going on in the auto industry right now that you really have to see it to believe it. If you haven’t been to a dealership in a while, you need to get out and see what’s happening in terms of the electronics and technology. It’s absolutely amazing.”
Tickets for this year’s Show cost $13.00 for adults and $11.00 for seniors and preteens. Children six and under get in free. Parking is also free, courtesy of your franchised new car dealers. Updated Cleveland Auto Show information and e-tickets are currently available at www.clevelandautoshow.com. You can also like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter.
