Turftruckers

Turftruckers Liessel is a dedicated drivers' association that has been active since 1986. With over 100 members, we share a passion for the driving profession and are deeply committed to organizing Truckshow Liessel with great enthusiasm.

Where it all began

Truckshow Liessel started in 1986 as a small initiative by local truckers who wanted to share their passion for trucks. The first edition of Truckshow Liessel took place on the grounds of Café De Turfschop and the transport company W. van Eijk in Liessel. This event attracted around 80 trucks and marked the beginning of what would later grow into an annual event. After this successful edition, the drivers' association Turftruckers Liessel was founded.

Over the years

Truckshow Liessel grew steadily, with more and more enthusiasts finding their way to Liessel to enjoy the amazing trucks. Every year, we became a little bigger and more professional. The show transitioned from a regional to a national, and later even an international event. Due to the growth of the event, we were forced to change locations several times. In 2013, we found our current location on Hazeldonkseweg in Liessel. This location provides the perfect setting for Truckshow Liessel.

Where we are now

What started as a modest event on a small site has now grown into a large-scale truck show that attracts hundreds of trucks and thousands of visitors from home and abroad. Over the years, the event has changed a lot, but the core values of passion for the trucking profession and ‘Brabantse gezelligheid’ (conviviality) have always remained. We are proud of what we achieve every year, and we continue to work hard to make Truckshow Liessel even more attractive and spectacular year after year.

Activities

At Turftruckers Liessel, we work hard throughout the year to make Truckshow Liessel in August a successful event. But that's not all we do! We kick off the new year with a New Year's drink for our members. To show our appreciation for the dedication of our volunteers, we organize a fun volunteer party after Truckshow Liessel. In December, we hold a Sinterklaas celebration for the children of our members. We are proud of our membership base and the commitment of our active members. Thanks to their dedication and enthusiasm, we are able to organize an amazing truck show every year.
