RPS International AV Festival

Wednesday, 05 September 2018 11:27 Written by Leigh Woolford

HE RPS INTERNATIONAL AV FESTIVAL 22/23 SEPTEMBER 2018, CHELTENHAM

Entries have now closed, but if you are thinking of coming you have until Sunday 9 September 2018 to book tickets for the Saturday and Sunday Projection Sessions plus meals.  Bookings for the Festival Dinner on the Saturday evening have been very popular. There is a limit to the numbers that can be accommodated for the Festival Dinner, but we do still have some availability. Further information is available here: www.rpsinternational.org.uk.

Tickets for the daily sessions can be purchased on the day at the Reception Desk, but cost slightly more than tickets booked in advance. Unfortunately, meals have to be pre-ordered by 9 September to inform the Catering Service of numbers, but tea and coffee are included in the price of the session tickets.

The Festival weekend is an opportunity for you to see AVs from around the world whether you attend for one day or the whole weekend.

I look forward to seeing you at the Festival.
