Coun Waltham, who is also Cabinet Member for Business, Innovation, Employment and Skills, said: “This year we are doing something very different with our stand that will allow people to find out about tourism in North Lincolnshire. We have made it very interactive with our videos that show the beautiful cycling routes throughout North Lincolnshire.
“There are some fantastic attractions right on our doorstep. Come along and discover North Lincolnshire.
“North Lincolnshire is the place to be and is firmly on the map as a tourist destination and a place to do business. We are looking forward to meeting residents and businesses across Lincolnshire to show them why they should be visiting and investing in North Lincolnshire.
“Millions of pounds are being invested over the next couple of years in North Lincolnshire, including the Lincolnshire Lakes project, new office developments in Scunthorpe town centre, cycling routes to link North Lincolnshire and Able UK Marine Energy Park.”
Many Brigg people visit the Lincolnshire Show each year as spectators and a good many local businesses have stands, including Peacock and Binnington (pictured above by Brigg Blog at a previous year's show).
