Would it be worth me going round tomorrow to enquire about it when I arrive? We are staying 10 mins from the venue. Yes, go and speak to the Access people in the entry hall tomorrow if you can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it will take a little longer because they need to complete the paperwork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm planning on getting my wristband tomorrow too, flight gets in at 3pm and we're going to the venue to pick up diamonds and wristbands. Hopefully should make things quicker on Saturday morning. Maybe I'll see you in the queue! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will look out for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 My missus has osteo in her knees too, only early 40s, so I can completely sympathise here. Doesn't make it easy going up and down from the floor to places with our seven month old daughter sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say as it depends what time everyone will be there, but it’ll probably be quite busy by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size of the queue may feel daunting but, once those doors open, everyone moves very quickly in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been quite far in the queue some days over the years and still got jn quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris1970 Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Yes, 10 min, or so, after opening we are all inside. It is pretty quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday starts 10am, weekend is 9am. You arrive then on Saturday and it will likely be out of the waiting area onto the street. Which is why I've got a DP for Saturday so I can turn up after the queues are already inside (that and the fact most of the autographs I'm getting are on Friday!).

OurDek Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) We have a pretty long journey and usually arrive around 9-30-9.45, by then the lines have gone down nicely and we're in for around 10.00. It all depends on whoever is on the doors and how many scanners they have. Last time we came on the Friday but we're back to Sunday this year. We've never had a problem getting autographs and have on occasion gained them all by 11.00. Edited July 25, 2019 by OurDek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unsubliminal Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Judging by this mornings pics, am I right in thinking we can queue inside tomorrow morning? Does anyone know what time the holding area opens? Will definitely help having to feed my toddler whilst waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
