Can anyone from WHFI S&V confirm whether there are any shows planned for London this year?

Re: London show?

Seems odd though that there isn't one......................what are the figures re demographics............ some 20% or more in the South East and we don't warrant a HI Fi show?


Not great when you live in the middle of Kent to get to either Bristol or Manchester...............but before some wag tells me, it's all choice driven.


Still would be nice to have a London show...............must make commercial sense also.

Re: London show?

Involvement in a London event is definitely something we're keen on - but it'd need to be the right event, venue and economic-circumstances. We have discussions on a regular basis with all sorts of people regarding regional and national events - we'll let you know as soon as anything more definite emerges.

understand the response, however it hasn't said much, anything a bit more specific for us South East types?

Re: London show?

Not at the moment, i'm afraid. Lots of very interesting discussions going on at the moment, but nothing I can divulge on a public forum!

Re: London show?

I fully understand, in the interests of fair-play, you can't expect anyone living in Newcastle, let's say, travelling to the South-East year in year out.


The population in the SE is far higher than other parts of the country, and it isn't practical for me (and others, no doubt) to travel to Manchester.


A suggestion: couldn't WHFI S&V co-host a second exhibition in London with a sister mag, like What Car, for instance?
