The newly launched three-day Spikes Asia Festival is now open for delegate registrations. The three-day advertising festival will take place at Suntec City in Singapore, 16-18 September 2009.
After 23 years of existence, the Spikes will this year be launched as an Asian advertising festival offering a three-day programme themed to identify and address specific issues that are relevant to the Asian market.
The registration package includes access to the full festival programme of seminars and workshops, exhibitions and screenings of all the competing work, daily networking opportunities, attendance to the Spikes awards ceremony at The Victoria Concert Hall to honour Asia’s best ads as well as admittance to the closing party.
As well as a three-day delegate registration package, a Young Creatives package is also available for the under 28s as well as a student registration package enabling the creatives of the future to participate in the festival.
"The launch of the Spikes Asia Festival will offer creative inspiration, an exceptional learning experience, a remarkable insight into the region’s advertising and communications industry and a unique networking opportunity," says Terry Savage, chairman of Cannes Lions, organisers of the event.
Tim Waldron, managing director of Haymarket, said, “With such an outstanding programme of events, this is an exciting opportunity for Spikes to become the must-attend event in Asia.”
