Satanajade Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hello, so this is something I've wanted to attend for quite some time! As a first timer, is there anything you think I could benefit from knowing? Apart from booking my diamond pass for Paul Wesley, and photoshoot with Daniel Gillies, I've found everything else has been pretty vague with no times for when I should be there, no actual times slotted against the time slots, and no times for the talk. Apologies if i'm being thick but have I missed something? I'll be there on the Sunday. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) Hi Satana, welcome to the forums. It might be advisable to have a read of the first few pages of this thread, it does get bogged down with chat but it does have a lot of good info Edited July 15, 2018 by Queen_Sindel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) The schedule with the photo shoot times will be released about a week before the event so you can look the times of your photo session up when it's published Test edit Edited July 15, 2018 by Raylenth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjbleming Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 The schedule for photoshoots and talks hasn't been released yet, it should be within the next few days. Otherwise, wear comfy shoes, bring a mini fan (not a child that thinks your the best, a battery powered fan!! ), some water, something for lunch (there's a Tesco across the road and a Sainsbury's down the road) and make a list of when your photoshoots and any talks are when the schedule is released. (I've personally found it helpful to put them into your phone calendar) And damn you Raylenth, I'm posting this anyways! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a time you'd recommend getting there? :) Sorry for the double quote this thing is being annoying today. Re queuing, it depends. For photo shoots he won't be able to join you in the queue without a ticket and certainly not in the actual booth. He can stand near the queue boundry and by the exit doors though. For auto's if it's an non VQ guest then he can, if it's a VQ/Diamond guest then only if he has a VQ as well. He doesn't need to buy anything, but he will need a ticket to be in the queue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from a few years ago so some of the info might have changed a wee bit but I found this massively helpful getting my head round lfcc last year as a first-timer: https://dorgris.wordpress.com/2015/01/22/lfcc-a-beginners-guide/ It explains VQ tickets, Diamond Passes etc but also gives advice on what you might want to bring with you :) and what generally happens with autos and photo ops etc. Hope this is helpful!

He doesn't need to buy anything, but he will need a ticket to be in the queue And you have to wait until the highest number of your tickets is called. For example: You have the DP for Paul, he gets a VQ ticket for Paul. You can join the queue when your DP number is called, but if he wants to join you you'll have to wait till his VQ number is called because it's the highest number.

whitewillow Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 If you want to get an autograph for a guest that you don't have a Diamond Pass, and if that person is on the virtual queue system, you will have to get there early in the morning (before opening time) to ensure you get a low number virtual ticket. Usually people over 25 pounds are on the virtual queue system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
