The return of a northern coin machine event will see the Amusement & Retail Entertainment Expo (ARE) take place in Manchester on April 29-30.
Trade show organiser Karen Cooke of Swan Events is behind the venture, which will be held at the Cotton Sheds, Victoria Warehouse, in the city.
Cooke has named the exhibitors so far committed: 7s Above, Ask Global Solutions, Bandai Namco Amusement Europe, Blueprint Operations, Boomerang Digital, E-Service, Electrocoin, Fatcat Softworks, GeWeTe, Innovative Technology, Instance Automatics, JNC Sales, Maggi Electronics, Newman Sales, Novomatic, Reflex Gaming, SB Machines and Sega Amusements International.
Workshops are planned to coincide with the event within two dedicated spaces, the High Street Hub and the Leisure Entertainment Lab.
Said Cooke: “This is a great opportunity for visitors to ARE to access valuable learning opportunities for free, just steps away from the main exhibition hall. No two sessions will clash, so all the content will be available to everyone.”
The High Street Hub will address key regulatory and customer engagement topics led by the Gambling Business Group. The High Street Lab will feature a series of expert-led discussions focusing on innovation in the gambling sector alongside legislative developments and the future of the industry.
