Irish Vapefest Announcement
-
19-06-2012 7:15pm#1Hi all,
I am excited
to announce that Vapefest Ireland will take place at the Abbeyleix Manor Hotel near Portlaoise on 15th September 2012 from 11am to late. This location was picked because it is vape friendly and located in a central part of Ireland. It’s hoped this will make it as accessible as possible, for people travelling from north, south, east and west of the country.
I would like to state this is a non profit event and the sole purpose is to promote vaping & e-cigarette use in Ireland and to provide an arena where curious, new or experienced vapers and vendors can meet each other and have a fun and interesting day/night.
The event will facilitate those who are curious about vaping & ecigarettes by providing a platform where vendors and experienced users of ecigarettes will be able to advise and demonstrate how ecigarettes work and share experiences with each other.
Whether you’re experienced at vaping or have recently started, there will be plenty there to interest you.
It is foreseen that there will be a vast display of different types of e-cigarette type systems available on the day, along with a free juice bar where everyone can sample different flavoured e-liquids and a rebuildable table where a demonstration of different types of rebuildable type systems and setups will be shown. I will be looking into other activities on the day and am open to ideas if anyone has something they would like to see done. And of course there will be a monster raffle for attendees; more details are on the Vapefest website.
So far 9 of the Irish vendors have confirmed they will attend on the day and we have kindly being given sponsorship of some fantastic prizes for a grand raffle from a total of 12 vendors. I’m expecting more vendors and prizes to be announced soon.
The vendors, who so far, are either supporting or attending the event and the prizes donated for the monster raffle, are as follows in alphabetical order:
www.bargainvapour.com Prize(s) to be announced.

www.provape.com A 24k gold Provari Starter kit, including an 18650 and an 18490 battery, regular end cap, extension cap, battery charger, atomisers, drip tip and velvet sleeve kindly donated by Provape.
www.thevapourstore.com €500 in vouchers which will be split into 1 x €200 voucher, 1 x €100 voucher and 4 x €50 vouchers, a fantastic gesture kindly donated by Helen who unfortunately can’t attend on the day even though she would love to if it was possible.
We have also launched a website that has more information on the venue and the event which can be found here www.vapefestireland.weebly.com
Any one that has any questions or ideas for the event can contact me through PM here on boards or through the contact us section of the Vapefest website. Any vendor who may like to attend or donate a prize for the raffle may also contact me.
It is sincerely hoped that as many vapers as possible especially the guys who are here on boards and any new people thinking of starting vaping instead of tobacco cigarettes will manage to attend this event, where it is hoped that a fun and enjoyable day will be had by all.
I’d also ask everyone here to try encourage family members and friends who vape or are interested in quitting smoking for e-cigarettes to come along on the day as it isn’t often an opportunity to meet most of the Irish vendors and win such fabulous prizes comes along.
I wish to also thank Mewso, Derra and Eeloe for some help and advice along the way while organising this event. Mewso has also kindly agreed to be press officer for any press coverage we may get for event in the run up to it and this is much appreciated.
I will update this thread with event news as it happens.
Thanks
Shane (Newmark)19

Excellent work guys, really looking forward to this. Hope it will be a huge success.
Two questions about the 24k Gold Provari:
- Does it come with it's own monocle, or do you have to get that separately?
- Who do I have to blow to win it?
Oh, and I hope you've no issues with copyright infringement 0 -

Shaping up to be a good event. Am dragging a non-vaping, non-smoking friend with me and staying the night.
She's been amazed at all the flavours I've been trying so have to get her some zero nic ones to play with. Now just have to get her a cheap pink starter kit and we're sorted 0 -

Crazy that someone who never smoked wants to vape, but hey, i'd rather see her start vaping instead of smoking stinkies! 0 -
