A huge selection of items to browse from the traders, spent a good time looking through that lot, and just so happened to come across a ctm 644 Amstrad monitor from the nice people at RockRaBiLia, what a find! Does anyone know who the lads were doing the chip tunes in the bar, and is it available for purchase/download?

22:43-- Craig: Glad you all enjoyed it; finishing time was always 5pm on Sunday although there may have been the odd typo here and there. Some exhibitors are forced to leave early depending on their journey time as they had to be at work today, such as guys in Scotland and European visitors. We ensured they did not start until after 4pm though for safety reasons as most people had left by then.
22:45-- Craig: Our official photographer/videographer Paul will be compiling his footage into a special mini-documentary on the event as a type of online souvenir of the event, which will come soon. Until then many visitors have flooded Facebook and YouTube with photos and videos of the best of the event :)

What is Revival?

545362 365647260192733 912426468 n

Over the weekend of the 18th and 19th May 2013 we launched our first Retro Expo event that we called Revival. The event will be annual going forwards and will be 100% retro - celebrating gaming and nostalgia throughout the 70's, 80's and 90's. We have some great partners in The Retro Computer Museum, The Centre for Computing History and UK Vac and together we plan to annually put on the largest retro only event in the UK.

crash logoNewsfield comes to Revival - confirmed new guests are Roger Kean, Oliver Frey and Robin Hogg.

Roger launched Crash magazine back in 1983 and followed the huge success of this ZX Spectrum magazine up with Zzap 64 for the Commodore 64 and Amtix for Mr Sugar's Amstrad machines. Oli was in charge of the infamous covers and illustrations that adjouned the magazine's many pages whilst Robin was an in-house staff writer.

Roger is curretly working with Retro Fusion in producing 'The History of Ocean', a definitive book on the history of this illustrious software house.

We look forward to having a Q/A session with Roger at Revival and he will also be on hand to sign some Newsfield memorabilla including posters and issues of Crash, Zzap and Amtix.
