Rob, do you have some sort of shopping centre near by? Anything like that where lots of people are about, and somewhere, where a company or who ever owns the shopping cetnre allow you to set up a stand and display your robot next to your stand and sell tickets? Make some signs up on your computer and sell a load of tickets, or at least advertise you can buy tickets on the door.
Have you put and adverts in local papers? We placed an advert in our local paper for our FWSmash 2003 event which cost us £55 but a decent size on a page, and that helped quite a bit! Be creative, even the small things make a big difference.
LOL @ Andrew R - good marketing in the last week or two before the event.
Yeah ask for a load of washing machines and tons of public with offer, then due to the large amount of washing machines it will reach the news and all sorts :)

Stu,
Weve spent £850 on newspaper advertising. We have 200 A3 posters around the area (25 mile radius) and a few wooden hoardings on roundabouts :)We also did a 3000 leaflet mailshot to primary schools
Details of arrangements for teams are now up on my site. Any queries email or phone me.
Cheers
Rob

Sorry Alan, Andy Ive now added them - so many feathers and ants from multi-robot teams its hard to keep up!
Lee - Youve always been down to attend this event but only on Sunday and you never put in a request for accommodation. If you need a room for Sat night Im sure we can find one.
