Battlestar Cons for 2012
A must for any true Battlestar fan is a convention; there is no better way to get up close and personal with your favourite stars and get in on the action. The next con for the UK is scheduled for 11th-13th of May in 2012 and there will be no shortage of banner stand images and merchandise.
This event is Inva2ion and also covers a number of other sci-fi based TV shows such as Caprica, V and Stargate Universe. There will of course be guest talks, photo opportunities and autograph chances, in May this event will be held at the Renaissance Hotel at Heathrow.
There is much more to a convention than most, who have never been, would expect. It’s not just about listening to a panel from your favourite show, buying merchandise and getting pictures taken. Many of the totally diehard fans go the extra ten miles, dressing up is normal and for some it is a tradition.
Anyone who is not into sci-fi based shows tend to think of this type of behaviour as geeky or simply strange, but it is all about absorbing yourself in the atmosphere and really getting into the swing of it. Of course this doesn’t mean you have to dress up, jeans and a T will suffice if you’d rather not get into character.
A word of warning though, once you’ve been to one convention, you will have the bug and want to go again and again. Herein lies the problem, the UK doesn’t get as many events per year as the U.S does, 1-2 at most, so when they do come around you really need to make the most of it. So if you want to get tickets for this event get onto the starfury website and book now before they sell out.
