Wakefield 2007 to take place in May Published: 21st Feb 2007, 00:35:12 | Permalink | PrintableNew venue found, theatre presentations 'unlikely' The WROCC have confirmed that the Wakefield 2007 show will take place on May 19 albeit at a new venue. The event's organisers had to ditch the Thornes Park Athletics Stadium, the usual host of the show, and it's "highly unlikely" theatre presentations will be held. The organisers have called on dealers and developers to book stands as soon as possible.

Organiser Chris Hughes said: "At last. The Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club is pleased to be able to announce that we will be holding another show this year.
"I have spent the last few weeks trying to find yet another alternative venue, and at least we have found one we feel is suitable. Due to the limit on time and other issues, it is inevitably a compromise venue.
"Regrettably, it is highly unlikely we will have a show theatre this year, due to the various issues of finding our alternative venue. We felt it was more important to run the main show. There is a possibility of a demo area being available, but this will be dependant on the number stands booked, etc."
The show is set to take place on Saturday, May 19, at The Mill House and Frobisher Suite, Stanley Ferry Marina, Ferry Lane, Stanley, Wakefield, WF3 4LT. The event will open from 10.30am to 5pm, and entrance is four quid on the door.
