| Feb. 24th, 2009 @ 06:48 pm Registration is Open! |
|---|
The convention is running from 2pm Friday 25th September to whenever they throw us out on Sunday 27th September. We will be running the usual things, and if you want further details check under the cuts :-) The website has been updated, and we have some timelines and news for you.
Registration costs £25, rising to £30 on 1st August 2009.
We now have Paypal available from the website, and would recommend that you use that in preference to posting cheques if possible.
You can pay using credit/debit card or Paypal from our website or send a cheque to our postal address. In either case we will require a registration form from all new attendees. ( more on registering )
Hotels
The convention is taking place at the Park Hotel in Tynemouth. Please remember to quote Connotations when booking a hotel room. Please note, the Park Hotel is not a huge hotel, so we recommend booking rooms as soon as possible. ( rates @ The Park Hotel )
Vidshow
The vidshow has been really good each year we've run it, and we're hoping to see even more entries this time :-) ( more on the Vidshow )
The Zine
We welcome slash stories (and mixed threesomes and moresomes ;-) in the zine. The deadline is July 31st. ( more on the Zine )
Panels
Please feel free to suggest potential panels from now or at any time up to when we start voting in late August.
As always, absolutely any topic is fair game for the convention, from fandom specific to the most metatastic. Technical to absurd. The things that bug you, the things you don't get, the things you wish we'd talk about. It's all good :-)
The Pimp Session
This will run as usual, with the sign up sheet near Reg Desk at the convention. AV, powerpoint, mime, puppet theatre and stick figures with explanatory notes have all been utilised, although some of the most successful have merely involved reading aloud from the source material... Plan for no more than five minutes to convince us all why your fandom is the best thing since Tyler fell in love with El Blanco :-)
Note: The website will be updated tomorrow... |
