Interactive panel discussions with cast and crew, photo and autograph sessions and a show case of official costumes and props, will give every true fan the chance to celebrate and share their passion for all things Doctor Who.

Already confirmed are Matt Smith and Steven Moffat, with more special guests to be announced in the coming weeks!

I was reading about this the other day. I really want to go but doubt that I could afford it. As well as tickets I'd have to pay for flights and hotels and whatnot. Would cost a fortune and the tickets are expensive enough on their own

I missed the Longleat Convention in 1983 and it looks like I'll miss this one as well :(

Could be tempting but (although I have enough money from a birthday) it's an awful lot of money and I'd have to get there and back myself, not going to happen :(

Had it have been in London I'd be more likely to think about going, but sadly not :(
