A GREAT VENUE FOR THE SCHOOL HALF-TERM HOLIDAYS - take a trip down the 
Information Superhighway at Acorn World '95, Wembley 27-29 October 

__________________________________________________________________________ 

It's the best show in town to educate and amuse the whole family, and it 
comes at just the time when you want to know more about the Information 
Superhighway, the Internet, browsing the World Wide Web, and the emerging, 
broadband network "Set-Top Box" technology.  Acorn World '95 is a super event 
to find out what all this means, and the best way to "get online". With lots 
of demos, information from experts and good savings on advance tickets - it's 
altogether too good to miss!   

Each day there'll be a variety of topical theatre presentations, including 
one by Acorn's Chris Cox at which he'll explain all about the Superhighway, 
and answer questions from the audience. 

You'll be able to "get online" at the event, both by getting "hands-on" the 
Internet in the futuristic Cyber Cafe area - a chance to find out what it's 
like, and by buying-in through VTI which will be selling Internet 
subscriptions. So come on down and have a browse. 

LIVE INTERNET/VIDEO LINK BETWEEN ACORN WORLD AND THE BLUE PETER STAND AT THE 
CBBC BIG BASH AT THE NEC IN BIRMINGHAM 

Also in the Cyber Cafe there'll be a live Internet/video link with the Blue 
Peter stand at the CBBC Big Bash in Birmingham at the NEC. Whizz kids at 
both events will be able to "chat over the net". Blue Peter will be filming 
them at Wembley on Friday, the first day of Acorn World '95, for 
transmission on their program later that day.
