#MediaWeek30 set for bumper issue and party on 29 April

Media Week's 30th celebrations are taking shape, offering the chance for the UK's vibrant commercial media businesses to get involved.

The anniversary print edition of Media Week will be published at the end of April. As well as contributions from some of Media Week's own alumni, the 30th edition will host expert comments from the likes of David Abraham, Tess Alps, Karen Blackett, David Emin, Paul Hayes, Justin Sampson, Kathleen Saxton, Adam Smith, Martin Sorrell, Sue Unerman, Christine Walker and Nigel Walley, among others.

The bumper 30th edition will take a look at the rising tech giants as media owners, major trends in advertising expenditure and present a moving tribute to Nick Milligan. There will be a review of all the main trade bodies, complete with score cards out of 10 on performance, and, of course, the return of Media Bitch. 

In addition, more than 20 media companies and agencies have so far contributed essays to Media Week's 30th edition, spanning all major media channels and views from many of the top 10 agencies. There are only a few spaces left if you want to get involved and contribute essays to the magazine. Enquiries to Rebecca Carles, senior sales executive at Haymarket, on rebecca.carles@haymarket.com.

The anniversary magazine will be published in time for Media Week's 30th party on 29 April. For more information and to request an invite email Celia.Miranda@haymarket.com.  

Many thanks for your continued support over the years. Here's to the next 30. #MediaWeek30
