Is there a Vapefest UK this year?

[Postmodern Smoking]

All quiet on the Vapefest UK front  .... any news?

[Perpetua]

Not that I'm aware of Dave . . . . rumours, but nothing definitive from the organisers.

I took the VF 10 pic they posted on FB about a month ago to mean that we'd be on in some shape or form.

Unless it was a cross and not a Roman numeral, but I imagine they'd tell us if it wasn't going ahead.

I'll go just about anywhere, within reason, but any time other than the first weekend in August might screw me with work.

There was a bit of a non-statement on the Vapefest facebook page about a month ago Dave, it's since been removed as some of the comments were getting a bit narky

Read that a few days ago, very condescending. Why, if you were taking on the task of running an event, would you push people in the direction of other events taking place a short time before your own ? The showground at Shrewsbury made it clear the venue was available if the "new" committee wanted to book it the first weekend in August.

Looks as if the showground have a boot sale planned for the start of August

EDIT: Wrong year!

Is that not 2018?

Yep, the 1st Saturday in August is the 3rd this year

Announcement on their f.bk page late last night that there is no Vapefest this year, possibly 2020.

[Perpetua]

The ' official ' announcement . . . .

And for those that are on Facebook . . . .
