Definitely a better venue maybe some where like the Drumsheds would be a better option

More games!

More merch vendors!

I'd also like to see JA have an actual physical booth

1- a more central UK location eg Birmingham to allow for easier transport for those further north. I would love to attend in person buts it's a considerable journey where I'm based.

2- 1 ticket for all areas. I think tiered ticketing really can hinder people's enjoyment, especially in an industry that's seen so much damage from studio closures in recent months. I feel like we really need to make the event more open to all to encourage more people to see hidden gems they may miss. It could be a big boost to revenue through word of mouth and feedback/reviews.

3- Additional gaming booths/areas to really maximise the number of developers able to showcase their works and talent to help drive interest in not just the games, but the event itself for having more options for more people, appealing to a wider audience.

I would love to see more independent stalls and a fuller artists alley. I find that with games you are restricted to having enough power outlets, monitors, screens, and kiosks available for your vendors and exhibitors but games extend to other mediums as well.

Having a separate area for artists to exhibit and show off their work related to videogames would be a nice distraction from the booths. I often find myself being interested in a handful of games and then wanting to explore some more niche elements of the culture such as art and cosplay

I'd like to see what we had this year & previous years,, making it constantly get better, id also like to see some cosplay areas a bit like the devolver digital display area, maybe an quiet closed off area for those who may feel sensory overload, maybe food drinks included in ticket price or can do special offers for those attending,

I would like to see more video game tournaments. I rememeber at my first WASD event, there was a small tournament for Tekken 8. I would like to see something similar to that in order to promote upcoming games.
