Loeries bookings, flights now open
It's time to make sure you have the best seats in the house for this year's Loerie awards, taking place in Margate at the end of July 2007. Bookings opened today, Friday 30 March, and in addition, preferential airfares to industry professionals travelling from Johannesburg and Cape Town en route to the Loeries are available through the official carrier agreement with low cost airline Mango, announced earlier this week.
Comments Andrew Human, MD of The Loerie Awards, ““We are very pleased to have Mango on board as a partner this year. They are a great young brand and willing to fly that extra mile.
“Bookings for the awards and flights get snapped up quickly so I advise all those planning on coming to the festival weekend to start booking their tickets for the awards, flights and accommodation now so as to avoid disappointment,” he advises.
Booking instructions are as follows:
- All award tickets are on a first-come, first-served basis. Go to www.theloerieawards.co.za/festival/tickets/ for all booking information.
- Go to www.theloerieawards.co.za/festival/flights/ to book flights for the festival weekend.
- If you haven't already done so, you'd best arrange your accommodation while you're about it. All accommodation information can be found at www.theloerieawards.co.za/festival/accomodation/
Don't forget that the entry deadline is 15 May, so everyone involved in brand communications - whether traditional advertising, architecture or ambient media - still has time to compile their entries and stand a chance of winning the industry's most sought-after accolade.
For all information regarding entry categories, criteria and inspiration, as a full archive of winners since 1978, go to www.theloerieawards.co.za. The 2006 printed annual is also available.
