PLASA heads east as venue closure draws near

PLASA heads east as venue closure draws near
PLASA, live events and audio exhibition, will be held at London's ExCeL in 2013 after 21 years of shows at the Earls Court & Olympia venue.

The 2013 event will head away from
the Earls Court site, which has suffered
an uncertain future after owners announced intentions to
flatten the venue, and will be held October
6 to 9, 2013.

Matthew Griffiths, CEO
of PLASA, said the move to ExCeL would
be positive for the exhibition and cited the
venue’s infrastructure benefits, which include good proximity
to London City Airport and rail links to mainland Europe.
