Wetherspoons offers backing to the Swarm

 

Wetherspoons recently announced their backing to foursquarestival‘s UK first super swarm attempt by offering up The Bank House (new ‘spoons) in Cheltenham as a venue for the attempt.

It’s great news that Super Swarm have backing from such a large company as ‘spoons, who are near enough going to guarantee themselves an extra 250+ (hopefully even more) people through their doors on Saturday October 9th 1-4pm. One wonders though, did any independant locations come forward for this? I’m sure many places must be crying out for an extra 250 punters.

Regardless of who’s hosting, the interesting thing for me will be putting a face to all those tweets I see every day, and of course being part of a UK first! 

@4squarestival is the brainchild of Holly Knowlman from @DirtyEnid and Andy Thorne from @jealousdesign, while there’s a whole team working on the Super Swarm including @AdrianEXG, @glos365, @SolutionMania and @jonnop not to mention the bucket loads of followers on Twitter RT-ing the message to all corners of Cheltenham and beyond!
