Full house for Print21 Ipex BBQ

The Print21 Ipex ANZ BBQ has received unprecedented support from supplier sponsors.

“The Newbold Comyn Arms, will be ANZ-central on Friday 21st May,” said co-organiser Andy McCourt. “The response is terrific and, despite these difficult times for the industry, pre-registrations for IPEX attendance are at an all-time high according to the show organisers. It’s an indication of just how important IPEX is to the future of printing.”

“Sponsorships for the BBQ are now closed and we would encourage visitors to IPEX to discuss ticket allocation with their favourite supplier/sponsor,” said McCourt. “There are a few independent tickets available and we have a wait-list in progress for these. We don’t want to disappoint anyone and will do whatever we can to fit all those wanting to attend in, by working with sponsors and the venue management.”

Entertainment for the night will commence with the ‘Motley Fool’ himself, Jester Kevin Burke , followed by brilliant vintage rockers Rainbow Road.  All food and standard drinks are included and, courtesy CPI/HP Scitex, coach transport from IPEX to the venue and back to main hotels is laid on.
