Organiser and bus owner, Richard Ward, said: "The Big Bus Show is a show for bus enthusiasts of all ages, traders and anyone who has ever brought a ticket to ride. 

‘Restoring buses to their former glory is something many people do.  It’s therapy really.  It takes your mind off the stresses and strains of modern life.  I will be joining the other exhibitors – showing my 2003 Dennis Dart at the event.’"

Jamie Vendy, of Dews Coaches, added: "We are very honoured to be solo hosting the event this year. Our presence and following has drawn many visitors and the event is now growing in size and scope year on year.

"Our group represents the era of buses from the 1990s in Norfolk and Suffolk so it is very much at the heart of the event. The group is led by myself as Chairman and I always spent weeks holidaying in the Norfolk & Suffolk area as a child in the 1990s.

‘It’s all about the nostalgia of transport and bringing some delightfully restored buses to the event where they can be seen and enjoyed by all."
