I know many on here do not visit the The Wam so as in past years I am starting this thread to give details of changes and news about the yearly show . The current owners of the The Wam forum have decided that they are not prepared to support the Show going forward . As a result those Wam members who formed the Show Team have decided they will run the show themselves. As the Wam Show is registered as a name this can not be used . So there will be a 2024 Show in the same spirit as the past for enthusiasts . The Show is looking to be self supporting and any small profit that may be generated will go in to funding the next show .
Also as a result a new name has been given the Maverick Hifi Enthusiasts Show which is a tribute to Paul from the Wam who worked so hard every year to make sure the show could not only be put on but also be enjoyed . All forums are welcome at the show either as exhibitors or visitors . The venue will remain the same Barnsley Holiday Inn . The date will as far as I know still be October . However as this is a new venture without any capital backing things may well change . I will add and new information when it comes .

As a one time exhibitior of my early incarnation of the 5 way horn system and one time co-exhibitor as part of the Monster-loony horn system, I am very pleased to hear it's still going.
If my system wasn't 500kgs+ inc amps etc, I'd happily do it again.

Also as a one-time exhibitor I would love to attend again (as a visitor) but I'll have to check depending on when it will be held.
