Stonewall Yourovision 2019
costumes ready!
See trick loves me really
Dude, everyone loves you.
Seriously. All I did was write a poem about you. Anyone could have done that. Hell, a bunch of us probably do and then keep them under our pillows and snuggle with them at night. Surely I'm not the only one who does that.

Here's some tips for this convention
- tickets should be available right up to on the day they sell them for entry. these are entry tickets (and for the free talks on the day). they sell many tiers which give you some photos/autographs but they cost way too much IMHO
- it is nice to see the fans and cosplayers who dress up. some make superb efforts indeed
- note that photos and autographs with the stars are all paid extras and the costs do add up so price this up if you want to keep to a budget
- the sets are not real and are "made" so if you have an eye for realism, this isn't for you
- but it should be a nice day out to see some of the free exhibits (like some costumes from the show, props used, collectors' collections etc - all should be on the website)
- you will be able to catch the stars sitting down for their signing sessions on the main floor too.
- there should be lots of stalls selling stuff (eaglemoss, costumes n merchandise) so bring your credit cards!
the NEC is very accessible being in the centre of the UK with transport links (road, rail, air)
Destination Star Trek will also be in Germany next year I believe?
- subscribe to the emails, they might, *might* ask for volunteers nearer the time depending on whether they have got enough. So this means you can get in for free BUT you will be helping out ANY TASK and so won't actually be free (on that day) to do what you might want to. But you might end up sitting next to one of the Trek stars yourself!
There is one final tip
- just enjoy and soak up the atmosphere, and see Star Trek fans as you may never have seen them before, who have come from far and wide to be with their fellow fans and in the presence they've seen on screen. THis year will feature DISCO quite a bit I see too!
I remember my first time and smiling seeing people in uniform walking proudly through the halls. And then spotting Gul Dukat!
