Try going From Euston to Victoria Station on the Victoria Line then switch to the District Line through to Earls Court and Olympia from there, you only have to make One change. Hope this helps :lol: :D

Yes :) I believe there's an underground that goes there or an actual train so either way nobody really has a chance of getting lost!

It is the same venue but in a different hall. Collectormania London 2009 took place in Olympia Two. This event is in Olympia Grand Hall.

The venue is next to the Kensington Olympia underground.

We are going from inverness. Traveling down by train on the Tuesday before though as this is our big holiday. Its not that difficult to get around though. I was nervous the first time traveling with a 5 year old who hated the underground but as long as you know your north and south and east and wests you will be fine. Grab a tube map before you go and you can basically plan out your journey at home. If you get confused in the Tube and get on the wrong one then you can get off and jump on the right one. trust me if i can do it anyone can.

Really looking forward to the event, glad hubby and I can just walk up to the nearest train station and get a train straight to the event.

Only down side is its the same weekend as colourthon, a charity 13.1mile walk that starts at 8pm on the the 7th in Southend, that my hubby and I are hoping to do in honour of a friend who sadly passed last year (and cause training for the event i.e. walking a lot more is helping us to lose excess weight and get into shape)

Ah well these things can't be avoided, guess I'll have to find some way of killing two birds with one stone so to speak.

so looking forward to it being at the Olympia Grand Hall, bit nicer then Earls Court. Hope the layout has an upgrade, not that I don't love "rush hour". I think we need a few Japanese food vendors, burger stained jedi robes are out this year.
See you at LFCC and Collectormania!

Will talk about anything, but only if it's Firefly, Star trek, Cinema or MMO Gaming related.

Quick question- is it best to book NOW, or can it wait until April?

Another event taking all my moneys right now >.<


Edit: Sorry but it is against forum rules to mention/discuss non SM/ME events.

I really want to come to this event but other people's comments have me worried about queues getting in.
I was going to buy the early bird passes and obviously get there before the opening time but do I need to queue as early as 6am for example?

Also if I buy a photoshoot ticket in advance and the guest cancels are they refunded?

If you want to see both Jeri and Gillian and have to leave again at 1 PM then yes, I would indeed advise this. ;)

Joking aside: if you are there all day and can wait until a guest goes open queue (that very often happens at the end because people have to go home for one reason or the other and don't use their VQ tickets) there is no need for 6 AM. An hour or so before is fine.

Yes, they are refunded in this case.

And you are not annnoying, don't worry. That's what this forum is here for, so you can ask your questions. :smile:

Hello, I intend to come and I have a doubt about the progress of the comic con. For photoshoots, must be purchased on the site in advance but against the autographs, he have to line the big day to get a ticket, is that right? Excuse me in advance for my English but I am French and it is not obvious to me.
And we will know when the different schedules for particular passages photoshoots?

Hello,

You can purchase photo shoots at the event (if they do not sell out). It is better to purchase them in advance becasue the queues to buy them at the event can get quite long.

The schedule is normally released 1-2 weeks before the event.
