Festool Roadshow – 2017 Tours show truckloads of tools headed everywhere

LEBANON, Ind. – Festool has announced its second annual product tour schedule, the Festool Roadshow, which is powered by a 48’ truck making numerous stops throughout the United States and Canada in 2017. In May stops across Ontario and Manitoba are scheduled, followed by North Dakota and Minnesota in June.

The tour has been designed to give craftsmen across North America a first-hand look at everything that's currently available —and upcoming — from Festool. Widely regarded as the superior brand among remodelers, carpenters, cabinet makers, furniture builders and painters, Festool will be showcasing recent product introductions and future product previews as well as a broad range of its award-winning product line.
 
“The Festool Roadshow was a huge success in 2016 so we’re going out again, throughout the U.S. and Canada, in 2017,” says Leo Zirkler, Vice President of Marketing at Festool. “The Roadshow is our way of taking our professional tool solutions out into the marketplace, where craftsmen can experience first-hand, how to do their jobs better and in less time.”
