Promoters Announce Show Changes for 2012
The promoters of the Indy Antique Advertising Show have announced changes for 2012. In response to customer surveys, the show will open with a preview on Friday afternoon from 2pm to 6pm. Preview tickets are $50 which includes the preview on Friday and admission on Saturday. After 40 years of no early buying, B & D Promotions is responding to customer surveys that were completed during the March 2011 Show.

"We strongly feel that we need to continue to make strides to keep this show the premier antique advertising show. Since becoming involved as promoters in 2010, the feedback from the customers has been overwhelmingly asking for early buying on Friday." Friday has traditionally been just for the dealers to set up.

On Saturday, the show will open an hour earlier at 9am and will close at 4pm. Admission remains the same at $8 per person with free admission for those under 12 years of age. The show ends on Saturday. "Many of our dealers still have traditional jobs besides their antique business. Closing the show on Saturday allows Sunday for travel and therefore one less day away from work. Since announcing these changes at the September show, we have been approached by several dealers wanting to come back and/or set up for the first time."

It is anticipated that the March show will surpass 2011 which had the largest attendance in 10 years with 30% growth in number of dealers.
