Celebration Europe 2 - Essen

[x-pack]

That's the problem. Years ago i wouldn't have even thought about it, it's all different now though :?

Other thing is that it's on my birthday and the Mrs won't be happy bout that. I just asked and she said it was ok but you know what women are like, pouting on the inside and all that. But it looks so good :roll: I'll probably just hang on for a decent UK event.

It's your birthday though, right?

Where is the actual venue for CE2? The Conference Centre or Essen Fairground?

Wish me luck, I am on holiday for those two weeks However was meant to be staying in Aviemore the Monday-Thursday, so errrrrrrr planning on sweet talking the wife tomorrow to let me go.

Been checking hotels ect, and just in case my wife wants and son wants to come can someone tell me the actual venue please, check official website all it says is essen

 

[Richard_H]

It's the Messe Essen conference centre I believe.

The ones on the link show

Luke Battle Poncho
Barada
Amanaman
A Wing Pilot

All last 17 figures. I'm wondering if the only ones they will issue will be the 'last 17' or 'last 15' (without Paploo and Lumat) depends on number of halls/rooms I suppose.

If that is the case then I would love an Imperial Gunner or Luke Stomtrooper Disguise

Looks like all 17 are going to be produced - Like EV9D9 a lot 8)

Seriously thinking of going now. I would probably drive over on Friday evening and come back on Sunday afternoon (so no days off work required.) Would be leaving from London. Anyone fancy coming with me? It's about a 700 mile round trip so we could just split the fuel/ferry cost. Should be cheaper than flying, especially with 2+ people. Drop me a PM if you're interested.

I'm flying over on Friday evening. Returning Monday afternoon as I'm off work (lovely 6 weeks holiday )
Cost £110 all together - flights are not that unreasonable really.

However, if you've got the car and are willing to shuttle people to Denis' BBQ on the Saturday evening I'm more than willing to chip in there

Tempted too... What about Hotels? Or camping out under the galaxy of Star?!

 

[Grant_C]

Hey Guys,

What hotels are you booked into?

Are there any hostels and campsites as well?

 

[Richard_H]

I'm at Hotel Franz. 1 or 2 others are there too. I think Liam is at the Holiday Inn - I think that's pricey.
