The Mantic Autumn Open Day
2nd Nov 2018
Martin Thirlwell
With only a week to go until we open our doors to our amazing fans I just wanted to give you an update of what the plan of the day is so you can make sure you are in the right place at the right time. There are still tickets available here but they are almost sold out..
All ticket holders will receive a fantastic goodie bag. Martin is annoyed with one of the items as he thought he would have the only one in existence.. but you will all get an extremely rare blue resin Ice Queen. We don't plan on making any more but Ricky and the team made another 100. (Lucky you - *grumble grumble* - MT). You will also get some discount vouchers and some other fantastic items, but we will keep those as a surprise.
My unique snowflake is no longer unique...

Food
We are pleased to welcome back the Al Fresco Pizza Co. who supplied awesome food for us back at the Spring Open Day. They provide a wide range of wood-fired pizzas and will be serving from 10-30 until around 2-30. We will of course have the Mantic tuck shop open for snacks and drinks.
As you can see we have a really packed day, bringing you some old favourites and some exciting new things too.
Can't wait to see you all on the 10th November!
Cheers
Martin
