Basically the normal format is;
Friday night opening ceremony then party.
Saturday morning comprises of autographs and photo shoots. Afternoon stage activities (talks etc) and guest encounters (smaller groups of a dozen approx meeting a guest for a chat). Party in the evening.
Sunday is similar to Saturday with the addition of the closing ceremony.
Always expect the unexpected though

Wot 1of2 said. Also, a schedule will be posted sometime in the next week so you'll have a good idea of how things'll go. And don't panic - you'll have plenty of time to get your autos and photos as it's way more relaxed than the signing events like Collectormania and the LFCC. The Bitten cons in particular are great fun.

Would be great if the schedule was posted online as I don't think I can get down til Saturday morning so would be good to know when stuff is on. Also what time can we pick our tickets up from on the Saturday?
If the apocalypse comes...beep me!

The 2 bitten cons I've been to I've enjoyed, good atmosphere and guests!
And bitten 3 is going to be my last weekend/hotel style convention for a while, so I'm looking forward to going out on a good event :)
