The show takes place from Saturday 4th February to Sunday 5th February.
IMATS London is moving from Alexandra Palace’s West Hall to its Great Hall Feb. 3-5, 2012, which means more than twice the space for exhibitors and presentations.

Master classes, open to pros and the public, also will be held Friday.
Some of the make-up industry’s most dazzling artists have been booked for the show. Keynote speakers include BAFTA winner Nick Dudman, the make-up mastermind behind the entire Harry Potter film series; he’ll recreate a goblin make-up on actor Warwick Davis live at the show. Emmy Award-winning fashion veteran Valenté Frazier (America’s Next Top Model, Elle, Vogue) will also be a keynote speaker.
Make-up artists from films considered for 2012 Oscar and BAFTA awards will be on hand at IMATS London 2012 for an Oscar panel discussion. Branch governor Leonard Engelman and IMATS director Michael Key will talk with Ann Buchanan (Hugo), Mark Coulier (The Iron Lady), Nick Dudman (the Harry Potter series), David Martí (Gainsbourg: Vie héroïque), Montsé Ribe (Gainsbourg: Vie héroïque) and Bjoern Rehbein (Anonymous).
Academy Award winner Lois Burwell (Braveheart) has been added as a keynote speaker for IMATS London 2012. She was recently the make-up designer and department head on the World War I epic War Horse and has worked on such films as The Princess Bride, Legend, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The Fifth Element, Highlander and Mona Lisa.
Additional special guests include Rob Freitas (Star Trek, Men in Black), BAFTA winner Neill Gorton (Saving Private Ryan, Dr. Who), Einat Dan (Vogue Sposa, Maxim), Lan Nguyen (Vogue, Elle) and Dany Sanz (Make Up For Ever founder). Dan and Frazier will teach the Friday master classes.
Scores of international cosmetics companies will unveil new products and tools at IMATS London and offer discounts on old favorites. Industry leaders will teach workshops, do live demonstrations and share their work in the Make-up Museum, which will showcase creatures and effects from popular films and television shows.
In the student make-up competitions, international make-up students will race to create winning looks. This year’s beauty competition is themed Wild Kingdom; the character competition has a Men in Black Aliens theme.
