Registrations for Visual Impact Gold Coast 2020 – a leading trade show for the sign, display, wide format print, engraving and textiles sectors – are now open.
Visual Impact runs from April 30 to May 2 at the Gold Coast Exhibition and Convention Centre near Broadbeach. Doors open at 10am each day, with closing times at 6pm on the Thursday and Friday, and 4pm on the final day.
Peter Harper, chief executive officer of show organisers Visual Connections, said the trade show is shaping up to one of the most comprehensive to date with a number of leading industry suppliers already confirmed. It is also set to coincide with an inaugural national conference for sign and display professionals organised by the Australian Sign & Graphics Association (ASGA) and FESPA.
“Visual Impact will take up almost the entirety of Halls 2-4 at the Broadbeach centre, with a comprehensive display of the latest equipment, systems and solutions from leading industry suppliers,” Harper said.
“Already, we have a showcase covering everything from wide format print, to engraving and laser cutting, textile and DTG printing, display systems, substrates and consumables, neon and LED lighting technologies, and braille – with more exhibitors still to confirm.”
Roland DG is the platinum sponsor of the show with gold sponsors Europoles, HP, Hexis and Mimaki, along with Spicers, Epson, Multicam, Adzon, Wilenco, Trotec, Gravotec, Alfex, Mutoh, and Elizabeth Machines, among others.
A dedicated Textile Production Workshop to shine a light on this vital and growing sector of the market is planned, along with a host of other opportunities for visitors to gain valuable information and insights to help build business success.
“With the inaugural ASGA and FESPA Australia 2020 HP National Sign & Display Conference running concurrently with the expo, and the associated 2020 HP Awards for Excellence on Friday 1 May, not to mention the show’s location at Broadbeach on the beautiful Gold Coast, there are plenty of reasons for business owners, sales, production and marketing specialists to attend,” Harper said.
