twiga Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Can anyone advise from previous experience what Olympia is like temperature-wise? Does it have air con or at least good ventilation? It's been damn hot these past few days - can't imagine the mess we'd be in if it's this hot on the day!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony1975 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I hope it is cooler than last years at Earls Court! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I've only been to events at Olympia in December so can't advise. It's got very high ceilings but not sure that's going to allow much air to circulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRichard76 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I hope it is cooler than last years at Earls Court! To be honest, I'm not one to complain but I remember standing in the line for Stan Lees photoshoot and my goodness was it hot in there, people were using their photoshoot tickets as makeshift fans. I was planning on cosplaying this year - but somehow wwith all those bodies in such a space I feel it wouldn't be right to :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerie Tanith Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'm going to be wearing a long velvet dress, so I sincerely hope it's not too hot. Then again, my default body temperature is cold (right this moment I'm sat here with a blanket on and it's about 28°) so I might be okay. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should see me at work, we have a fan going behind the counter and I'm complaining that it's too cold. My boss tells me I'm crazy, then I make him touch my ice-cube hands and he shrieks because I'm basically a massive icicle. It's nuts.

ritchyb1983 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 White clothes for me to reflect the heat, however if it's as hot as last year's summer event it won't make a difference so I'll be hiring a PA to fan me all weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longsightboy Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I went to WLFCC in October 2013 in a t-shirt and I was sweating cobs in there! It was unseasonably hot that day though and the glass roof didn't help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry2sheds Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 LFCC 2913 was great, I had no problem with the temperature at the venue even though it was the hottest day of that year, In 2014 it was a nightmare, hot outside, roasting inside, and it was not just me, i saw many people frantically faning themselfs. Im hoping the change of venue will improve this problem. Dear Showmasters, turn on the AC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DullyEL Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I was fasting at last Years event, travelled from Birmingham all the way to London to meet Stan Lee. It was absoloutely baking and felt faint at times on the Saturday but on the Friday in the Queue for Stan Lee's auto, was okay as the queue was outside. I won't be going this Year which is a shame as it's an amazing guest list but next Year I'll have no trouble in attending just hope Hayley returns as I'm gutted I can't meet her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RatedRVD Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I'm sure at LFCC 14 one of the crewe said the aircon was broken. Saying that, i was hot at CM this year when it was raining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyfilm_1 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Could I please ask that we not get into the whole air con discussion/conspiracy at Earl's Court 2 again! There was a massive thread about it and it just got ridiculous. This is a different venue now, lets leave Earl's Court 2 respectively in the past. Thank you :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfools Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 The inside of Earls court was cooler than it was outside last year. I recommend a portable fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
