PiGs Summer Party 2024: Book Your FREE Tickets for Newcastle Event!

PiGs Newcastle is just under two weeks away, so the time is now to book your tickets, book your overnight accommodation, and get your best outfit ready to join us for the party of the summer!

In what will be out third event of the year, Pitcher & Piano will play host to many of the glazing sector from right across the supply chain on Thursday 22 August.

The previous two events, in Birmingham and Bristol, both broke its previous attendance records, and we expect the Newcastle event to be just as appealing.

George Lewis, Editorial PiG, said: “To have my first two events as an official ‘PiG’ break previous attendance records was amazing.

“And the conversations I’ve had there have just been brilliant. You find people all over the sector there, so there’s someone for everyone.

“If you’re thinking about coming, but hesitant, I’d just say ‘what have you got to lose!’ Everyone who attends these events are so welcoming and you won’t feel alone.

“Hope to see you there!”

PiGs Newcastle takes place at Pitcher & Piano, 108 The Quayside, Newcastle NE1 1EE from 5pm.
