Alright folks, those that frequent Retropassion and Retro Gamer will know that dates have been secured for our next show. And it's thanks to the outstanding amounts of positive feedback we received about The Retro Ball that made us continue with this nonsense! :lol:
So, the dates for this years show; Retro Fusion : A Weekend Of Gaming, are 30th September & 1st October.
Website will follow shortly and will be accessable via the Retro Fusion site.

Most excellent!
I have been wondering when the next retro event would occur, getting worried that 2006 was going to be a non event.
thanks for cheering me up ! :)

I am contemplating joining this years event with The UK Pinball Show that will be hosted in the Aston Conference centre in Birmingham. The event is planned for July 22nd and 23rd. How does this sound guys?

Well from a personal perspective those dates are better for me - also it'll be "high summer" so there'll be plenty of opportunity for drinking outside in the sun. As for the pinball show, yep why not, it worked at the RB last year - the pinball tables seemed really popular so it would seem like a good match.

I may sound greedy, but why not do both? Have a (small) Retro Fusion presence at the Pinball show, and do the September weekend as well...

Chaps,
The event will be still held at The Wardens in Kenilworth on the weekend of the 30th September. I was looking into joining the Pinball Show but it would cost me over £2k for a relatively small area at the venue.
So see u in September B)
This years event will NOT be for charity like last years. The money taken on the door will go, amongst other things, to helping exhibitors with expenses etc as it did cost a huge amount of money bringing 25 or so cabinets to Kenilworth.
Nice write up of last years event in Games Tm this month.
