Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
Me too. I just hope that I will be able to convince my husband that it is absolutely necessary for me to go :-D

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
I just really hope it's during French vacations and not during Roland Garros the French Grand Slam in tennis. I'd be in a really bad situation and I sooooo want to go! I've never been at a convention not even a fan meet-up. I'd love to go at one.
So far all the conventions have been during my school time *quietly swears colourful words*.

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
My guess for it is to take place sometime in autumn, late September or October possibly. Would make sense, though I could be wrong of course...

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
I really hope I can go! I've never been to one either and hope it's not too expensive! Does anyone know the rough price range???

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
The Elementary convention in February this year had the following prices:
- £160 Gold Tickets
- £95:00 Regular Tickets
- £35:00 for Children aged 14 and under
I assume it'd be in a similar price range, if not more. Might also depend on the special guests.

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
Thanks so much!! At least I know roughly how much these things cost!! I guess I should probably go to one while I can get a much cheaper ticket!!!

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
I literally will pay ANYTHING to be at this event.
I see it like a music festival, and £160 is cheaper than that, so perfectly good value IMO.
I just need some official news of dates etc, I need to book time off!

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
Yeah, of course, autumn would be much better for me too. I don't think I could get time off before late August. I just meant it would be good if we got at least an update as to when and where (!) it is going to take place to make some arrangements. I could at least notify my colleagues.

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
Oh my, the money I am going to spend! Tickets, plane tickets, my husband will want to come with me (he is not that much into Sherock but I guess he will not want me to go alone)... that will be month's paycheck at least :-D Maybe I will ask my family for an early Christmass present. When it's Sherlock convention - it's Christmass, after all :-D

Re: Sherlocked - The Official Sherlock Convention
Well, no further announcements since ... ages? I wonder when it will finally happen. 
If they really plan it this year it would be time for ANY information.
