We are pleased to announce a new RISC OS exhibition taking the place of
the much-loved Wakefield Show of previous years - RISC OS North. Sadly
due to rising costs, the Wakefield organisers have had to bow out this
year, but approached us to take over the reins to ensure the continuity of
the show.
RISC OS North will take place a little earlier - March 29th - to ensure
spacing between the various RISC OS events (eg. Netherlands show in May,
London show in October), and comes west, over the Pennines to Warrington.
We've endeavoured to maintain Wakefield's high standard of venue which
will be:
Village Hotel Warrington
110 Centre Park Square
Warrington
WA1 1QA
Date: Saturday 29th March 2025
The event will take place in the spacious Inspiration Suite, towards the
rear of the hotel, with entry (including disabled) through the front.
Warrington is well served by public transport with two stations.
Warrington Bank Quay is on the west coast main line, and Warrington
Central is on the Manchester-Liverpool East/West line. Both are within
walking distance (very much so for Bank Quay) although we'd probably take
a bus from Central.
Warrington is served by both Manchester and Liverpool airports.
Food/drink will be available in both the restaurant and Starbucks (both situated on either side of the hotel lobby).
There is also a more affordable hotel / eatery / pub across the street
(The Waterside) for those looking for other options.
Whilst we have already reached out to many former exhibitors, if you've
missed your invite, or would like to exhibit for the first time, please
contact either Richard Brown of Orpheus or Andrew Rawnsley of R-Comp to
discuss your requirements.
We look forward to welcoming as many people as possible to the new show.
In the meantime, please visit the show website at:

Best wishes to everyone,
Richard and Andrew
Further note - for reasons of viability/planning there will no longer be a SouthWest Show. We apologise to anyone looking forward to that event.
The focus will be on delivering a great show for RISC OS North to give developers time between events to prepare exciting products.
