The IPA’s four-day Festival Of British Advertising launches today (Wednesday), celebrating the best of British creativity from the past 100 years.
The event, for which Mediatel is a sponsor, charts British advertising achievements through an exhibition delving into the past, present and future of advertising – from the earliest print ads to the latest virtual reality technology.
Ticketed events will run alongside the exhibition including a Q&A with Oscar-winning director Sir Alan Parker, and a comedy panel show – “Pop Goes the Adbreak” – featuring adland’s top comedians and musicians who will discuss the relationship between pop music and commercials.
“Adam And The Ads” – a one-off show written by broadcaster Adam Buxton to showcase some of the funniest ads of all time – will also take place.
The event will take place at the Boilerhouse, Old Truman Brewery between 9 and 12 March.
