Hall of Fame set for 2022
THE TEAM BEHIND THE MOBIL DELVAC 1 NZ ROAD Transport Hall of Fame is excited to be back connecting face-to-face at this year’s gala event.
Last year’s event shifted to a digital format because of the pandemic, but 2022 will see the return to an in-person version in Invercargill on September 30.
TW Events & Incentives manager Adam Reinsfield says while the online event in 2021 was successful – the event had more than 2000 unique views from around the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe – you just can’t beat the real thing.
“We know our guests really relish the chance to catch up with their colleagues from throughout Aotearoa at the Hall of Fame, so to be able to get together and celebrate industry success stories alongside one another again is something I’m sure we are all looking forward to,” he says.
Every year, six people from around the country are inducted into the Hall of Fame, which honours their outstanding and significant contributions to the national road transport industry.
Inductees are selected to take their place alongside of the most respected names within the industry and they are recognised at a spectacular gala dinner, which routinely draws a crowd of more than 500 people, at Bill Richardson Transport World: the largest private automotive museum of its type in the world.
“Our 2022 inductees have been selected, and our team is hard at work compiling their stories to share and celebrate together,” Reinsfield says.
“It’s always a privilege to help the road transport industry facilitate this event, and recognise the efforts of its long-standing contributors. 2022 will be no different.
“The event is only possible with the support of our amazing sponsors, and we are incredibly grateful and excited to bring the NZ Road Transport Hall of Fame back this year,” he says.
This year’s event will see some slight changes introduced. The past inductees and sponsors event, previously held the night before the gala dinner, will this year be held on the same day. All gala dinner attendees are invited to join in the festivities as well.
Those wishing to attend either the gala dinner, or both the gala dinner and past inductees and sponsors luncheon, can register and book their tickets at roadtransporthalloffame.co.nz
