Questions?

Who can attend?
This event is open to creative production professionals from across the UK but primarily focused on Northern England. Not only that but because this event is local and just a half-day, we know it's easier for (and strongly encourage) teams to attend together.
Is the event free?
Yes! Both the content and networking portion of the event at The Stables and the afterparty at The Crystal Maze are free. That said, space is limited so request a seat as soon as you can.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?
We will have an assortment of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options available. If you have other specific requirements or allergies, please email Sean O'Meara at sean@creativforce.io so we can do our best to accommodate you.
More questions? Large group registrations?
If you have additional questions or would like to register more than 4 additional team members, please email Sean O'Meara at sean@creativforce.io.
