Structure

[edit]

Will some more info (sourced, of course) about the expos of each year be added?? In its present state, the article repeats sentences such as "UK Games Expo 2008 was the second Expo. This was held at the Clarendon Suites, Hagley Road in Birmingham." This can be greatly reduced for the benefit fo all readers... I do not want to start changign it drastically (and perhaps fruitlessly) now, please add info soon. Thank you, --WikiHannibal (talk) 21:23, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

2021 dates error

[edit]

Panel on right is incorrect, AFAIK. I think the expo ends 1-Aug-2021 not 4-Aug. Correct? Paul Beardsell (talk) 18:07, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
