With the mad rush for places now well underway, and numbers looking very good for i15, we're pleased to announce that we're creating an additional 200 places. This takes the total number of available spaces at i15 to 1049! i15 could well be the first event EVER in the UK to break 1000 participants!
At last year's March event we looked set to break the 1000 barrier, but we unable to create the extra seats necessary in the old Berkshire Stand venue at Newbury Racecourse for safety reasons. However, now we're in the much larger Grandstand at Newbury, we're able to expand much more.
To give the extra spaces, we're investing heavily in extra infrastructure, particular power. We're never completely sure what numbers we're going to get, so we had to hold off until we were sure of numbers before making this investment. Now we're seeing all indications pointing to the event being over 1000 people, we've ordered all the gear to expand whilst maintaining the same quality you have come to expect of the i-series.
Even with the expansion, we're able to set aside a very large space for the social area. Well, a whole floor as it happens! Whilst the main gaming areas will be on the Ground and Second Floors of the Grandstand, the entire First Floor will be where everyone can to take a break. The bar, food outlets and big screen will all be located on the First floor. This means plenty of space to take time out and relax with your gaming buddies.
Even with the expansion, places are likely to go very quickly. At i10 last year we had over 1200 people after the 930 places we had available. i15 is looking very much the same. <a href="http://www.multiplay.co.uk/signuppage3.asp?event=20">Sign up</a> now and confirm your place with a credit or debit card to avoid disappointment.
