Well its official, Auto Assembly 2009 will be Europe's largest (in terms of guests and attendance) dedicated Transformers convention ever! Yes we have received word from the organisers that over night it has broken the previous European record set by Auto Assembly in 2008 of 423.
Transforce held the record for a few years at 400 in 2002 until Auto Assembly beat that in 2005 with 409 attendees. In 2008 the event sent a new record of 423.
Remember we will be in attendance putting on the worlds largest display of Lucky Draws (though u will need to be their on the Sunday to see everything we have), so remember to stop by and introduce yourselves.
Auto Assembly 2009 Releases Final Single-Day Tickets!
With
Just 20 days to go before Auto Assembly 2009, we are now releasing the
FINAL batch of single day tickets for those of you unable to attend for
the full weekend...!
We have now released a further 45 single day passes for
the Saturday and Sunday and once these have sold out, the only way you
will be able to get a one-day pass will be as an on-the-door attendee
and these will be sold on a first come, first served basis subject to
availability. We do have plenty of full weekend passes available still
and these are not subject to any restrictions on sales numbers so if
you want a full weekend pass you still have time to book these, but as
the convention is getting closer, you don't want to miss out...
The cut-off dates for pre-registrations are looming
ever closer and for those of you living within the UK, you MUST get
your bookings in by 10th August 2009 to allow us enough time to process
them and post your passes out to you. If you live outside of the UK, we
are recommending that you book no later than 3rd August. Any later and
we can not be held responsible for delays in the postal system.
If you wish to collect your passes on the weekend
itself in person, we will be looking into this for WEEKEND ATTENDEES
ONLY but please contact us to discuss this.
Single day attendees will get access to the FULL
convention on your chosen day including all the dealers, workshops, all
the guest talks, FREE autograph sessions, our goodie bags, and
everything else that weekend attendees have. However, weekend attendees
gain earlier admission to the convention and have access to the
exclusive Saturday evening programme with our voice actor script
reading, live band and disco and the bonus Friday evening programme.
Single day passes are just £25 for adults and £18 for
children/concessions.
Full weekend tickets are still available and are £45
for adults and £35 for children/students/senior citizens with under 5s
being FREE. Family tickets (2 adults and 2 children) are just £145
saving £15. Don't miss out on your chance to be a part of what is going
to be a great weekend celebrating 25 years of the Transformers!! The
convention is already about to break the European attendance record
from pre-registrations alone so isn't now the time you should be a part
of it?!
Finally, our main convention hotel is now FULL for the
Saturday night for accommodation so we have now moved onto an overflow
hotel nearby and are also investigating a THIRD for accommodation. If
you are travelling and do need somewhere to stay, we can't stress the
urgency now of booking sooner rather than later to get somewhere to
stay as well as your ticket for the event! Hotel details will be sent
with your booking confirmation. The Holiday Inn, and our overflow hotel
have ample rooms for the Friday and Sunday evenings but Saturday is
only available in the overflow hotel.
