Emphasising the importance of training and education, the PLASA Professional Development Programme (PPDP) reinforces the importance of continual learning as an integral aspect of the show. This year's sessions are designed to focus on technical hands-on training, industry debate and networking to appeal to lighting and sound professionals at every stage in their career.
Building on the success in 2003 of the inaugural Architectural Audio & Visual sector, this year there will be a village of exhibitors that are associated with voice alarm and public address, architectural lighting, building design and the audio-visual sector. This will be complemented by a central bar to provide plenty of networking opportunities.
A major attraction for visitors to the PLASA Show is the opportunity for meeting old friends and catching up on industry news at the hub of the show in the Central Meeting Area. And, of course, the ever-popular DJ Sunday will once again attract some of the UK's leading amateur DJ talent on Sunday 12 September.
