Karsten Jahnke’s company celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, and to mark such a prestigious milestone, they’re inviting all ILMC delegates to raise a complimentary glass with them.

The ‘I Will Survive’ Campfire Karaoke 22:30–02:00 The ‘I Will Survive’ Campfire Karaoke is always the scene of a multitude of aural crimes, all of them against music. Expect some adventure-themed performances as this expedition into the sonic unknown stretches, almost unbearably, into the early hours of Friday morning and incorporates The Arthur Awards after-show party. With props and costumes on hand for inspiration, this late-night scene of fun and silliness is not the kind of event you want to miss, (nor attend if you’re sober).
