Ignite London 6 is on tonight at 93 Feet East and boy do we have a treat for you! Doors open at 7 pm so please make sure you are in before 7:30 pm as your ticket guarantee for admission is waived after this time and we then allow those eager people in at the door.
We are also proud to announce our Event Sponsor for the evening: Wiley. Matching our motto, Wiley has been a valued source of information and understanding for over 200 years, helping people around the world to be enlightened and to fulfill their aspirations.
With a fandoobytastic line-up of speakers we hope to see plenty of opinions via the twitter hashtag #igniteLDN6. With the local elections closing it might be a long shot, but we’d love it if you’d make us proud by getting us a trending topic in London once again.
If you are unable to attend, please let us know via tickets@ignitelondon.net so that we can reallocate your ticket to someone on our rather long waitlist.
Looking forward to seeing all of you in the audience this evening.

Here is another friendly reminder that the final batch of tickets goes on sale at
12:30 this Thursday.
If you didn’t already realise, tickets are free and only guarantees admission for one person until 19:30. After this point we reserve the right to let other eager people in who have waited or tried their luck at the door.
Remember if you do wish to vote in the local elections please do so in the morning, so you can enjoy some dinner around Brick Lane before #igniteLDN6.
So head on over to our Eventbrite
page and keep a close eye on this site and our twitter account.
Tickets are limited so please only take one if you are able to attend. Previous events have shown ticket holders not informing us they would be unable to make it. This meant that hundreds of people on the waitlist were unable to have a chance of attending in their place.
Therefore if you are unable to attend please inform us as soon as possible via tickets@ignitelondon.net, thus allowing us to redistribute the ticket to someone able to use it.
We wish you the best of luck in getting a ticket and look forward to seeing you at Ignite London 6.
