THE Construction Plant-hire Association has announced that tables for its new Gala Dinner – being held at the St George’s Hall in Liverpool on Thursday November 6 – are selling quickly.

The headline sponsor is NOCN Group, the drinks reception sponsor is NPORS, and Plant Planet is the media partner. Other organisations sponsoring the event include Ainscough Crane Hire, Construction Equipment Association (CEA), Construction Hoist Interest Group (CHIG), The Hire Exchange, Instagrid, JCB, and Point of Rental/Record360.
The night will feature fine dining, legendary speakers, and industry celebration, with a three-course menu prepared by a team of 5* Michelin experienced chefs.
Steve Mulholland, CPA CEO, said, “We thought it was fitting to get everyone together to celebrate what a wonderful industry we work in. There have been testing times for the sector over the last few years, and the Gala Dinner will allow us all to enjoy an evening of great company and excellent food in the stunning surroundings of St George’s Hall in the heart of Liverpool.
“The event affords the opportunity for CPA members to network with fellow CPA members, the wider industry, colleagues, the CPA Council, the CPA team and we’ll even have some celebrity guests and professional photographers on standby to take paparazzi style shots. It’s all set to be a fabulous evening and we’re looking forward to everyone joining us.”
The Master of Ceremonies for the evening is plant content creator, journalist, vlogger, and event host Peter Haddock of Content With Media. Speakers are football legend John Barnes and comedian Bobby Davro.
