Visual Impact Brisbane Opens today

VIsual Impact opens today at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre.

The industry's leading show for sign, display, print and graphics will run from 17 – 19 July, showcasing solutions for signage and displays, wide-format, textile and garment printing, LED and illumination, fabrication, routing, engraving and laser cutting, software and workflows.

The benefits of trade shows are well-established, with the opportunity to see and experience all the latest technologies, compare solutions under one roof, and connect with organisations and people who can help advise you on future directions and investments. Charly Blades, Events Manager for show organisers, Visual Connections, says all this and more will be offered to visitors in Brisbane.

"This show will be one of the most comprehensive we've staged in Brisbane, and the response has been excellent with well over 2000 industry professionals expected to attend over the three days," she reports, saying registrations are 'flooding in' in the usual, last-minute rush.

While visitors to the Brisbane show are, as expected, coming mainly from Queensland, northern New South Wales and the Northern Territory, there are registrations from New Zealand and other surrounding nations and a sizeable contingent from 'down south', with Queensland's warmer weather proving an incentive for those in cooler climes to make the trip.

"Pre-registrations are in line with our expectations, and the number is growing fast each day as people confirm their intentions and start to plan their visit – and we have assembled some handy online resources to help them make the most of every minute," Blades says.

As well as the show's floorplan, resources also include a comprehensive Visitor Guide with information on each of the companies exhibiting, links to accommodation deals and transport information, and dining and activity suggestions.

"There is a busy program of short, focused presentations in our new Connections Centre, so you can download the program for that to help plan your days and find out more information about things like the Try-A-Trade activities and the Channel Lettering Workshops being run by Lettertech and BounceLED, which are proving incredibly popular," adds Blades, saying that Women in Print will also be holding a networking event at 4.30 pm on the Thursday afternoon.

"As an extra incentive, Visual Connections will be offering Visual Impact visitors free parking on the Thursday and Friday afternoons of the show. Just enter the BCEC carpark between 1-3 pm on either day and present your ticket to the Customer Service desk at the show, and we'll provide you with a free parking pass," she adds.

Visual Impact Brisbane will run from Wednesday, 17 July, to Friday, 19 July, at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre at South Bank. Roland DG is the Platinum Sponsor of the show, joined by Avery Dennison, Epson, Graphic Art Mart, HP, Spicers and Trotec as Gold Sponsors.

Registration is free of charge to industry professionals – click here to register online, or go to the Visual Impact website for all the latest information including the full visitor guide and most up-to-date floorplan.
