Androide Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I don't think it has been mentioned before, DSTE will take place in Hall 4 of the NEC. From what I can see, this is the second biggest hall of the venue. (16,700 m2)http://www.thenec.co.uk/whatson/destination-star-trek-europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedead Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 it's been a long time since any guests has been added , when are likely to here any more announcements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewer Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I think I'm correct in saying there are more guest and photo opportunities listed on the main site that aren't detailed in the forum. Worth checking out if you haven't done so. And I would highly recommend the Gowron costume shoot if it's anything like 2012 DSTL 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmwheels Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Chewer,you are correct, this forum doesn't show everything announced, but Trek man is also right in that there have been no new guests added since 01.06.16 - eight weeks ago. Let's hope we get more soon! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony1975 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Plenty of time still for more guests. I reckon we will get new announcements once this weekends London event is over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namine Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 yup, they'll probably get other stuff out of the way and then announce more guests for DST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star trek girl Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Been months since the last guest release. Please have Kate mulgrew on the Sat I have wanted to meet her for so long. Hope more guests get released soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raylenth Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 COME ON THIS IS GETTING SILLY NOW .2 months to go and not enough guests. We need to be able to plan our weekend. They will make announcements as and when they can Petertina, they have just had their biggest event of the year and now that it's over they will be able to get back to the other events.

Undoubtedly true, but any sense of momentum seems to have been completely lost this way. It needs to be regained, and soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony1975 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I agree the lack of new guest announcements is disappointing. However because of William Shatner, Walter Koenig and George Takei I will be going. Anymore guests of interest which are added will be a bonus for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, the latter two definitely for me along with Will Wheaton are my top three must-haves this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrorabbit Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I'm sure there are plenty of announcments to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Fooku Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 To use a football analogy, I'd say the first 11 line-up looks pretty good at the moment, it's just that the squad could do with being filled out a bit!This event does seem to have been a bit different this time round, in that there hasn't been one big announcement of guests followed by a few more but they've done well in the past so that gives me confidence they'll get it right this time as well.

Yes I'd go along with that too, though if we're going with a football theme it never hurts to have the odd star player or two on the bench who can come on to change the game if needed. A "super sub" if one of your star performers gets injured or *coughs* goes AWOL just before the match... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petertina Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) Well at the moment it feels like a cup round not the final. But I am sure they will field the full A team. Edited August 4, 2016 by Queen_Sindel part of post removed - we do have guests coming on here. Please be respectful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmwheels Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 With 2 months to go, Linda Park's cancellation wasn't the announcement I was hoping for . . . Come on SM, give us something else :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Androide Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 instead of adding new guests, we're losing the ones we already had ;-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khitomer1 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Come on SM let's get the final line up announced so we can plan our weekend! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewer Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I have to admit that this is plodding along now week after week and doing nothing to build the excitement and anticipation for a convention to celebrate the 50 the ANNIVERSARY of Trek. This should be HUGE!!! DST3 had all guests and full timetables visible from near the first announcement and didn't alternate very much up to the actual event allowing attendees to plan and really feel the buzz for the build up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmwheels Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Agree. What is going on SM? In 9 weeks all we've had is one confirmed and 2 rumored likely guest cancellations. 8 weeks to go - fewer guests announced than for DST3, no details of individual guest talks, no exhibitor details, package allocations still not clear, no timetable. Doesnt make for a great sense of anticipation . . . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seela Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Gests are less than DST3 now. I hope we are going to get more soon. Maybe if not we could call it a weekend with LOl Edited August 11, 2016 by seela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namine Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I was looking forward to it, since it's gonna be for my 30th birthday instead of a party, I'm hoping we get some good guests like Sir Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner, Michael Dorn etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Fooku Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'm thinking Patrick Stewart is unlikely for this one, he's in a play in London at the time this event is on so I wonder if he would travel to Birmingham even for one day. I wonder if we we will start to see a bit more for this event towards the end of the month/early in Spetember, they have just got one official Star Trek event out of the way, with another one coming up in America soon. Hopefully that means attention will change to the uk after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
