See Mutant Turtles and Joey Essex at Truckfest

I’m A Celebrity star Joey Essex and children’s TV favourites the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be bringing “family appeal” to this year’s Truckfest.

The annual event is happening on May Bank Holiday weekend at the East of England Showground, Peterborough, and organisers Live Promotions Events have gone all out to make sure there is something for all ages to enjoy.

On Sunday, May 4, two characters from the highly popular Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be at Truckfest to meet and greet the children.

Then on Monday, May 5, it will be Big Red Bird from the famous Angry Birds, visiting the show.

And if that’s not enough, the crazy Only Way Is Essex star, Joey Essex will be out of the I’m A Celebrity jungle and appearing at Truckfest on the Sunday, and from Coronation Street Michelle Keegan is there on the Monday.

And of course, there will be more than 1,000 trucks together with main arena motorcycle action and the legendary car crushing Bigfoot in action throughout the weekend.

Colin Ward, of Live Promotions, said: “It’s all part of emphasing that Truckfest is now the biggest family show in the East of England over May Bank Holiday weekend.”
