Given the amount of arguments that go on in here I can imagine it being a bit of a fractious affair

Nah, Amiga fans are great when they get together. Internet anonymity makes people act like arses online.

WOW!! Only just saw this post. Being a Notts lad, Amigan and Magpies supporter, this is a definite for me! Shame the after party tickets have already gone, though.

Looks like this could be the first of many. Will Meadow Lane still be the venue in 4 years time, after we've had back-to-back promotions and are in the Premiership????

Hey there, everyone! I've got some exciting news to share - feast your eyes on the latest scoop about the main trader hall layout for Kickstart 01 Amiga Expo in the UK this July. Hopefully this gives you a rough idea of where all retailers are located (but do keep in mind that this information is subject to change and not at scale).



Get your tickets at www.AmigaShow.com Coming soon the layout of the User group Space!

I have got my ticket for Saturday.
Since I am coming from South Wales I now need to find a hotel in Nottingham that is not charging silly money for one night!

I was considering a trip to the event, but in the end our family planned a vacation for the same date.

I see the Amiga drama bus has arrived: [ Show youtube player ]


Hope this gets resolved soon. Banning games at an Amiga event seems a little... odd?

From what I understand, there were never any games banned from the event. The organisers didn't want the developer as an exhibitor, but the games could (and still can) be played there without issue. After that it all escalated on social media and that's when the developer was barred, but up until that point the developer was still welcome as a guest along with everyone else.
