Our first batch of photos from Q-Con XVIII are now online in our new Flicker account. This batch represents about half of the photos taken this year by our team of photographers.
The remaining photos including the Cosplay photoshoot will be uploaded soon. All photos are in high resolution as they were taken.
A big thank you to all our photographs who gave up their weekend to record Q-Con XVIII
Pre-Registration for Q-Con XVIII and for convention accommodation is now closed. If you've missed your chance to pre-register don’t worry, you can still come down on the day and register for the event. Last year we sold out on the Saturday and Sunday of Q-Con so we'd advise getting down as early as you can to get your ticket.
We’ll soon be sending out e-mails to everyone who has pre-registered with instructions on how to collect their registrations and how to get keys to accommodation.
Look out for more updates on Q-Con XVIII over the next few days as we gear up for the convention.
Thanks to all of you that attended Q-Con XVIII. Our Facebook is a-twitter, and our Twitter is a-.. something. You can follow the many happenings of Q-Con on Facebook via our Page, and the Q-Con Facebook group, or via Twitter @qub_qcon More news, pictures, and videos soon...
This was all brought to you by QUB Dragonslayers Society - if you'd like to join us for more of what you found at Q-Con, we meet every Tuesday evening in the Queen's University Students' Union (over 18s only, I'm afraid). You can also find us on Facebook as QUB Dragonslayers Facebook group.
Unfortunately, one of the Q-Con venue lifts has a mechanical fault, making disabled access impossible to the floor hosting most of our anime screenings, and some of our anime events. A second stream of the Dubbed Anime Screenings is now available on the 2nd Floor (Anne Maguire Room) to provide access via alternative lifts. Please ask our staff for more information.
We are very sorry for this, as it is beyond our control - the rest of the convention remains accessible via alternative lifts, including the cosplay masquerade.
If you've missed your chance to pre-register don’t worry, come down on the day - the weekend pass is £20, and a day pass for each day costs only £10.
To register on the day, simply come to the Registration Area on the left as you enter the front door to the QUB Students' Union - there is a dedicated entrance which will be sign-posted. You will need to fill in a short registration form, and provide this -along with your entry fee- to one or our registration staff - you will then be supplied with your badge, events guide and convention pack. Registration will open at noon on Friday, while game registration for Friday evening begins at 6pm, for games starting at 7pm. Registration will be open throughout the day, each day of the convention.
For more details on opening times and finding the convention venue, please look at our venue details page.
Last year we sold out on the Saturday and Sunday of Q-Con so we'd advise getting down as early as you can to get your convention pass.
Please note that if you wish to attend the Over 18 sections of the convention (Saturday evening) you will require an age verification wristband, which will be issued to attendees each day from the SU Reception desk on the Ground Floor. You must bring valid photographic ID (Valid Driving Licence/Passport, QUB or UU Student Card, or valid ID Card with the PASS hologram on it).
