EVENTS we represent Vapouround’s Big Weekend Appearance sees the best of its past, present and future The Vaper Expo is always the one expo of the year where you can see Vapouround Magazine out in force. While we can be seen at vape shows throughout the world, Vaper Expo is very much regarded as our home event. The most obvious sign of our presence at The Big Weekend was the colourful double decker Vapouround bus which was part of our showpiece stand at the three day event. The bus was parked close to the main entrance to the show and was one bus which was, quite literally, impossible to miss. It served as both the Vapouround team’s headquarters for the show and a meeting place for many others as they looked for an obvious landmark at the cavernous venue to meet friends and colleagues. On board the upper deck vape testing station was a big hit with visitors as they sampled some top line juices and were able to have all their vape-related questions answered. On the lower deck was a large seating area where we could meet with clients and visitors who wanted to know more about the Vapouround range of products and find out about forthcoming visits of the bus throughout the UK. Behind the bus was a large chill out zone with sofas and mood lighting which was designed to mimic the look and feel of our Vapouround Lounges which are currently in London and Derby and soon to be rolled out in other key locations too. Available at our merchandise stand (and graciously modelled by staff throughout the weekend) was our new clothing range. Far from cheap souvenirs, the Around Collection’s t-shirts are 100% cotton, coming with peel-proof print and unique takes on the Vapouround slogan. We also brought out a new arsenal of cool, charcoal- black snapbacks. If you missed the Expo, or couldn’t find the time to pick any up, see http:// vapouround.co.uk/shop/ for our full variety. One of the highlights of the weekend was the Vapouround Hunt, which saw visitors incentivised and rewarded for getting the most out of their weekend. Dedicated participants who collected stamps from participating stands returned to our HQ for raffle tickets and prizes. Everyone who completed their Vapouround Hunt cards was guaranteed a prize - anything from a bottle of e-liquid right up to cool new mods and tanks. It is always a pleasure to see so many people at Vaper Expo - to meet old friends and make new ones - and we thank everyone who came up to us for a char during the weekend. We will be back again in October and look forward to seeing you all there then. VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE ISSUE 11 131
